I haven't heard a multi-disc CDP that sounded any good, I suspect there's just too much vibrations emenating from the transport. I've listened to a lot of good single-disc CDP's in your price range, I happen to be a big fan of YBA players. Perhaps you should give up on a 5-disc and listen to some single-disc CDP's?
What am I doing wrong? Can't find right CD player.
Hope you all can help me out. Here's my system: Rotel 200 watts/channel stereo amp, McIntosh preamp, McIntosh LS350 speakers. Now the problem. Up until a few weeks ago was using a MCD 7008 McIntosh CD player. Typical Mac warm sounding easy on ears but not much clear definition in high end. So I went out and bought a Sony 555ES. Well high ends are sharp as is mid range but bass is lacking. Also, I suspect listener fatgue will be a problem with this unit. Isn't there a 5 disc CD player that is a happy medium between these 2 units? I am really frustrated. Any suggestions? ps - CD player budget is $1500 max. Thanks
