Opinions on Arcam FMJ CD 37 Player


Would appreciate any opinions from owners or previous owners on Arcam's FMJ CD37 CD/SACD player. I've got the upgrade bug. My initial thought was to get a universal player but, i am having second thoughts. I recently took home for demo a Cambridge Audio BD751. I thought this was a very nice sounding player. It had good low end, detailed highs without being harsh, a nice full bodied midrandge and good soundstaging. When i hooked it up to my Rega Dac, i could not tell the difference which, i think tells me the Cambridge does not make a good transport as does my current set up. Would the Arcam without using the Raga Dac be a major step up in performance given that it is twice the cost of the Cambridge? My set up consist of: Plinius integrated 9200, Dynaudio Focus Speakers 140's, DNM & FMS IC and speaker wire and Rega Dac w/Pioneer BDfd51 Blu Ray as transport. I do not have the opportunity to demo this player. Thanks for any feedback.
