    CD player..?

    Hi..

    Any good CD player to match with my Rotel RC1070 & RB1070?
    Currently I am using a normal DVD player to hook up this system..

    BTW, does getting a good CD player make the music sound "warmer" or no different?

    Currently, this is my set up.
    RC1070
    RB1070
    Focal Chrous 714

    Cheers

    I would put the Rotel RCD 1072 on the top of my list. As a former Rotel owner I found the Rotel CD player matches very well with Rotel pre amp.

        It retails for about $700 US dollars. However, you can get it for under $500 used on Audiogon.
        A camera, passport, good music, good food and good company is all I need.

          The 1072 is a great cd player and an obvious match for the rest of your system.I had a 1072 myself for a couple of years in my Rotel based system.Last Christmas I replaced it with a Consonance CD120/192 and haven't looked back.The Consonance was a big improvement in all areas .As you are in Singapore you should be able to get a Consonance around the same price as the Rotel.

            Sony DVP 9000ES DVD/SACD

            New $1500. Used on audiogon $325. Great player, great build, which can be modded to be a fantastic player. Fits well with RB 990 and RB 1090.

              Although I certainly understand that this might not be the appropriate forum to ask this question, I figured that all of you have had experience with other brands of separates. So, here goes:

              I'm going to write a little bit about these 2 Rotel amps from my experience with both in my system at the same time.

              Setup:
              SqueezeBox3 -> Rotel RC1070 preamp -> Rotel RB1070/Rotel RB1090 -> Martin Logan Summits -> Joey's ears

              I'm also new to the forum and must say..."Rotel or bust"...
              Ivhung is motivating me to ask this question. I am currently driving Boston VR2 (bi-wired @ 4ohm) with RC1070/RB1070 pair with Boston PV500 sub using the secong line-level outs of the pre-amp. It KILLS!!

              I am an old school audiophile...I also sold Rotel and other 'mid-fi' products at a stereo outlet in Vancouver, Canada for 2 years back in the 1980's.

              I still have my old Harmon Kardon integrated amp I bought when I was 14 years old (PM 640 integrated amp, RCD 940BX, Mission 700 speakers)....
