Hi,
Just bought a Marantz CD52MKII which I have demo'd for a couple of days now. Whilst it's a much needed improvement over my old set up I'm still not convinced it sounds right to my ears.
It sounds good with easy listening or pop but sounds a bit bright with rock which is my preferred style. My current amp is an Arcam Alpha 5 and wondered whether I'd gain anything swopping to a Marantz amp to match the CDP brand. (possibly a PM4000) or is the Arcam better?
Speakers are Mission 70's which I plan to upgrade later this year.
Regards
John
