Rega Saturn vs Cambridge 840c

Has anyone tried them both, impressions, differencies?
Can they stand in a bigger setup at least for sometime?

Check there... I think the reviews were mixed - both being excellent CDPs and both so much more bang for the buck than you could have found just a few years ago.

Not sure what happened to it. I have not listened to the Saturn but what I can say about the 840c (that has been said by many others) is that it is very musically engaging - great PRAT if you will - and a top end to die for. I've now got over 400 hours on it and find myself very much agreeing with TAS about this player (even tho I was quite skeptical of that review early on). One big plus for me are the digital inputs allowing you to also use the 840c as a DAC. This made a big difference in running my Squeezebox via it's digital out into the 840c.
