Some of you may have seen my previous thread regarding my recent acquisition of a DV88 and my pondering as to how it would stack up against my current disc spinner the CD72T.
Well to put it simply, it trounced it! The DV88 was superior in every respect and the differences were both significant an immediately apparent: the soundstage had attained a new and obvious depth, the bottom end was much more prominent and powerful, timbres were more accurate and better articulated, detail significantly improved as did imaging... basically everything is better!
to elaborate on the imaging factor... the DV88 handled bussier pieces with greater ease than the CD72, offering up all the infomation in an accessable way and the centre of the image was improved through greater seperation of the instruments. background vocals were clearer and seemed more forward in the mix than the CD72.
for the 100 quid i paid for this DVD player i am absolutely delighted with its performance... and i havent even watched a movie yet!!!
