I tried to find a recent 'vs.' match between the two of these, but I have been a little unsuccessful.
Currently, I have B&W N804s using Monster MCX-1 (i think) cables to a Rotel RMB-1075 and an Onkyo Integra DTR 6.3 (using the receiver as the processor, which will be upgraded to the RSP-1068 soon), and my current CD player is actually the Panasonic XP30 DVD player, which is connected from Analog into the Receiver and then the Power Amp using AudioQuest King Cobras.
*wipes brow*
I am looking to upgrade my CD player. I would also like to get SACD and DVD-A support in the future, but 99% of my entire collection is in CDs. I fear that the Panasonic uses cheap ass DACs like many other Japanese companies, which is really limiting my system.
I found a bunch of reviews on the 02 and the 1072, most of which were good, and some of which were mixed. Although, I really havent found a direct comparison between the two.
So, I turn to Club Rotel! Have any of you demoed these two side-by-side, or actually own one, because you bought it over the other? The Panasonic is a real piece of junk, and I would just like to appreciate my existing CD collection a little more. Sometimes, the music comes in WAY too bright, which I am assuming is my DVD player since its used in Movies (too bright to begin with).
Any comments about this, feel free to post them!
Thanks a ton.
