Teac PD H750

I'm about to purchase a new cdp. I've been looking around and just about pulled the trigger on a Marantz 6004cd. I like the idea of the usb port on the front. I just saw a Teac PD H750 cdp with the same features as the Marantz. I have not been able to find any reviews on this cdp to get an idea of what it's all about. Anyone here had a chance to listen to it? Thanks

It looks like a step up (or just the evolution of) from the PD-H600, which I have and is still recommended by Absolute Sound in their latest buying guide for CDPs under $2000. You can take that with a grain of salt but I really like my PD-H600 and I've had it for about two years now, if not longer.

Both units use trickle down from Esoteric and it shows (sounds). Can't comment on the Marantz though I wouldn't mind listening to the SA-8004.

All the best,

I liked the PD-H600 well enough to buy 2. Haven't heard the 750, though I think the Marantz 8004 is more the competition than the 6004, and then it's a matter of personal preference not quality difference. I believe the Marantz units in general have a warmer/softer sound.

Thanks for your responses. I am now considering an Oppo 103 as well...just not sure since it will be strictly 2 channel.

I have an OPPO 103 as well and the TEAC PD-H600 is the better of the two, in my system. YMMV.

All the best,

It's been 6 months since anyone posted on this thread. I'm wondering if anyone has actually listened to or owned the CD-H750.

Looking at the inside photos it is a totally different animal. I love the nice dac, transport, and iphone compatibility it has. Plus, in silver it would be a nice match to my Onix SP3 tube amp.

I'm serious about pulling the trigger on the TEAC, but $400 is no chump change for me. What you say?
