Before you plunge completely, you might want to look at the umpteenth
generation SONY CDP-102. I glimpsed a review of it in that new magazine
(Digital Audio??). List is $450. It has 2x oversampling and apparently
16 bit decoding and quotes its phase linearity (I recall).
It interested me, anyhow. I have the CDP-101 which everyone likes to
act so superior to. Nevertheless, tin ear that I am, (that's Sn-ear, by
the way (why is it that everyone hates puns except their author?)) I
have been nothing other than pleased for about a year now. I have not
had even one incident of mistracking (knock on wood) and while some
of my approx 45 cds are much less super than others, they are all
readily distinguished from cassettes, records, etc by an inherent
clarity that stamps them as something special.
