“So you don't even know what players there are over 15K, but you know what they sound like?â€
Sounds to me that you don’t think that a well modded SCD-1 can sound better than your AMR CD-77. Well are you ready for this…
I first heard this player at the Munich high-end show and I happen to have a good customer relationship with a local dealer who sells this CDP. When I first heard this player I thought that it had very good sound but when I learned the retail price I questioned the value so I borrowed a demo unit from the local dealer and I hate to be the one o give you this news BUT
There is no F.. way this player worth the asking price. And YES I compared to my modded SCD-1, my SCD-1 outperformed the AMR on the following,
- Better resolution
- Better sound stage
- Better sound detail
- Better dynamics and button line a more natural sound (voices sound very natural on my SCD-1)
If you really really want to convince yourself, I welcome you to visit me in Germany and bring your player with you (you are not that far).
Cheers,
Felix
