I was debating, once, between SFCD, and Karik. At that time i had all Linn gear, and i guess karik was logical choice (so as the price). It is hard to say, which would be better in your case. Still SF is still holding its price, so 300bdude might have a point? Good Luck. By the way, i do not have a any complaints about my Karik
SFCD-1, Theta Miles or Linn Karik?
I am ready to upgrade my CD player from old Adcom cdp. I own SFS-40 and SF-1pre, and Meadowlark Kestrel. I heard good thing about all of the CDP above. I already own all of the SF stuff, so i am not sure i want SF player (discontinued anyway) Karik i can upgrade with Numerik, and the Theta is newer, still in production, i hope? I listen mostly blues, classical, and vocals. You sharing your experiances, with CDP's mentioned, is more than appreciated. Happy Hollidays!
