Question Cyrus CDi-XR anyone?

[RomanticWarrior]

I think I made a mistake when I bought a Rotel CD11 Mk2 player last year. Having listened to it for many months now I'm finding the sound a bit harsh and 'brittle'. Maybe it's my old ears getting a bit intolerant but I really prefer a warmer sound. I quite fancy the Cyrus CD player but before I go to look & listen, I was just wondering if anyone here has one or has compared one to others at a similar price. Or can anyone just recommend a current player with a warmer sound?

I've been listening to a Rotel RCD965 player for the last 30 years and that still sounds wonderful to me but I'm trying to set up a separate system in another room, hence the second player (and hence my blind allegiance to Rotel!).

Thanks.
