Hi All -
My Marantz CD50SE (purchased in 1990) has finally expired beyond 'fixableness' (now in very small pieces in a landfill -RIP!!) and I want to buy another CD player (and amp, and speakers, and TV -but that's another story) but also want a reasonably futureproofed DVD player as well.
I guess I'm not unique in trying to minimise the amount of kit sitting in the rack - a far cry from my younger years when I tried to impress my friends with the huge slabs of black plastic sitting glowing in the corner!!- and for this reason I'm hoping that someone out there can give me a realistic comparison of the CD playback quality between the Marantz DV7001 multiformat disc player and the CD6002.
They have both received rave reviews and scored well, but within the boundaries of their respective classes.
The bottom line is, I would love a one-box solution but will I get significantly better sound and video reproduction with the CD6002 + a mid-range stand alone DVD player (such as the Denon 1940), this combination being roughly the same price as the stand alone player.
I hope whatever I get will last as long as my old model!!
Any advice or opinion is much appreciated,
Thanks,
Nick
