    RCD 02 Upgrades???

    I have been thinking of upgrading my entry level RCD 02. However after reading a thread on modifying the 1072, I wondered if it was worth trying on the RCD 02? I believe it has the same DAC as the 1072, although different OP Amp. What do you think? is it worth trying or should I scrap it and buy something else?

    I found out that if you use an outboard D/A it has to be able to decode HDCD.

        In addition to the upgraded op-amps on the 1072, I believe that there are dual Burr-Brown DACs onboard (02 has only one). Might be a difficult home conversion job.

        That being said, whatever makes the unit you have sound better...

            RCC-1055, RCD-1072, RCD-02 and RCD-06 - what the difference?
            by audiojunky
            Rotel seems to have quite a few CD player and I'm having a hard time understanding the difference between them.

            Is there a difference between the RCC-1055 and the RCD-1072 (except for the fact that RCC is a 5 disk changer)? I mean is there a difference in quality?

            I read...

            RCD 1072 vs RDV 1060 for CD's???
            by Aussie Geoff
            Hi,

            Has anyone done the comparison of the above two (or similar such as the RCD 1070 or RCD 02 etc). I have a RSP 1098 and am interested in the level of audible difference with the Analogue input and the digital input (given that the RDV 1060 is only a but more that the RCD 1072 I was

            RCD-1072 vs RACD-02
            by hired goon
            G'day,

            I was in a hi-fi store the other day, and mentioned that I had the Rotel RCD-1072 CD player. The sales dude then mentioned that I "did not have Rotel's top of the range cd player", and proudly pointed to a RCD-02 CD player in the corner.

            I scoffed at this,...

            Rotel HT receiver and RCD-1072 users....
            by gianni
            Sorry this is so long, but I want to paint an accurate picture.

            A little over a month ago I purchased a RCD-1072 to add to my RSX-1055. Prior to the 1072, I had been using a roughly 15 year old Denon DCD-1520 which at the time was one of their top of the line CD players...this thing weighs...

            Wow, the RCD-1072 is good!
            by DUCKY
            After having had a NAD 502 CD player for over 10 years and loving it to bits, I went back to an all Rotel set. I first got the RDV-1060 but after some initial problems I chose to change it for an RCD-1072. The first one I got had a broken transport mechanism. The exchange was painless however and I...
