CD player - not repairable confirmed - what to do next
I took my Marantz CD player in for repair the other day, and afterwards took a trip into one of the hifi dealers to see what was currently available and also should I tip my toe into the streaming world.
The staff were very friendly and helpful although there was no interest in selling my CD player only streaming with a Nas and Linn streamer being their suggested path, probably around £2200.
Today it was confirmed that the CD player was not worthy of repair, the spare parts being no longer available. As we were the city center today I dropped into Richer Sounds to see what the had to offer, the main suggestions were either a Cambridge Streamer CXN at £800, or an Arcam cds50 which is a Sacd player and streamer at £700.
I was thinking of a Bluesound Vault as a possibility but have deceived I will probably move my music library to a Nas.
Been an interesting couple of days.
All suggestions welcome.
Regards
Robin
