Yes, I had a chance to spend some time with the the equinox a couple of years ago. In the same system, thought the equinox :
· equaled the much more expensive universal player (orbitor?) on redbook
· was cleaner and more articulate, but not as warm as Rega Jupiter 2000
· didn’t have the liveliness and detail of the Nova or Eclipse
· was good, but thought it as well as others in the ~2k range were sortof in no man’s land.At the time, the units in the 3k price tier were the sweet spot…better than the lesser priced units and a stones throw away from the SOTA units I heard. The offering in the 2k range simply didn’t do what the 3k stuff did and not much more than the sub 1k stuff. These days cd players are much like computers with each generation getting cheaper, better, but less durable. My guess is the sweetspot is less and perhaps some of the newer units would be worth exploring before deciding.
