Hegel Mohican vs. Bryston BCD-3


If anyone were looking for a single-box CD-player that qualified as a get-off-the-roundabout component, it seems to me that these two models would be high on their shortlist.  So my question is:

Has anybody been able to hear these two models side by side?

Right On! I would like to demo the Primare CD32 & CD 35 as well.

The Mohican is off of my list as it is sourced, in part, to china.


Happy Listening!

Thank You for sharing. The Mohican retails for $5K, while the Bryston retails for $3500.  Good to read that you bought one and are enjoying spinning those CDs.  Happy Listening!

I am curious to ask the panel if anyone owns or has auditioned the Hegel/Bryston spinner with Anthem gear?  Could the (3) brands exhibit synergy?
Happy Listening!
Much Thanks! twoleftears

keep me posted if you get an audition w/ the BCD-3 spinner.
Happy Listening!
twoleftears-

I am interested in your original post (OP).  I have around 3000 CDs (and counting)  do not show any signs of stopping my groove.

I would like to read about those who own the BCD-1 and its comparison to the newer BCD-3.  Equally, the Hegel is receiving very positive reviews as well. This player is sourced, to some degree, to china. At this level and price-point, the biggest question is wether Bryston/Hegel will continue to offer parts and service (in 5-10 years)?

Happy Listening!
