Time For a CD Player Upgrade
To answer a few questions, I am running my Rega Saturn stock; no external DAC, no special laser mats or fuses. I am open to an external DAC and other add-ons if they yield a substantial improvement.  I'm using JPS cables.  
CD player upgrade
I did as suggested and opened a new thread.  Thanks for the suggestion.  
CD player upgrade
I've been using a Rega Saturn Mk 2.  I recently upgraded my turntable to the Mark Levinson 5105 w/ the Ortofon Quintet Black S.  In comparison my CD's are sounding overly bright.   Any thoughts on a comparable upgrade to my CD listening?  
Power amplifier longevity… thoughts?
I use a McIntosh MC7270 amp with a C 712.. These units are easy to get serviced and are built to last a century.  The C 712 recently needed a new power supply.  I sent it to George Wilson and had it back in a week with a full tune up.
