Sorry, but I have to put a word in for Shanling. The sound is okay out of the box but can be improved with just a tube change. The way to make it really make it sing is to get the unit modified by Reference Audio Mods. I had mine done by Kyle and it is impressive. Not too bad to look at either, a real conversational piece.
Jolida J100, Shanling CDT100, or 640C with DAC?
OK GUYS! I narrowed down the search to these.
1) Get the Jolida... I can always upgrade through mods over time, gives me a slight upgrade over the 640C that I have now. I would sell the 640C.
2) Shanling CDT100... just outside my budget but a strong midrange front to it. TUBES! I would sell my 640C.
3) Sim Audio Equinox... solid state but a nice all in one player
4) Keep the 640C and get the Audio Mirrot DAC to team up with it.
Whats your thoughts?
