I Need a Reference Point


Hi folks, I have a brand new Arcam CD-92 which I love because it is the first high-end CD player I've ever had. I used to think digital was digital was digital. Not anymore! Crisp, clear sound is what I hear now that has blossomed into open detail. Once spoiled, always spoiled, and I'd like a good player for my office where I listen to music all day.

So what I would like to understand is where the Arcam CD-02 fits into the high-end CD player spectrum. Is it generally considered clinical/analytical sounding? Is it generally considered warm sounding? I need a CD player that does not get tedious to listen to all day.

It will play through a Magnum Dynalab CD-208 receiver (unless I futz with a new FT Audio LW-1 that is coming in the mail). I have not selected the speakers yet, but was considering the Tannoy System 600 nearfield monitors (I love the Tannoy sound), but I might also consider Merlins or some other small speaker.

Thanks!
