Hi Team,I am planning to buy a new CDP which I would want to be my last player for a loooong time to come.
By choice I have narrowed down to the Droplet and the A5. I have not heard any of the 2 as it is not possible in my area. So my entire selection based on reviews and recommendations.
I use Class A Valve amplification and ElectroStatic Hybrid Speakers . Cabling is VDH Carbon throughout.I have just put in a Clock3 ( Trichord Research ) into my existing Marantz CD-17 mk3. Would the abovementioned players sound much better than my existing modified Marantz?
Any recommendations will be extremely helpful. Thanks in advance for all replies.
regards,
Max
