Hi folks. First post and I'm hoping for some advice.
My current setup dates from the late 90s and consists of an Arcam Alpha 7 CD player, MF XA1 amp and Monitor Audio monitor 3 floorstanders. The Arcam has bitten the dust and I'm looking for a replacement. For my budget (up to £500) the Marantz cd6007 seems to be the one to go for, but I have a couple of questions. Firstly given the age of the rest of my setup, will I be able to make the most of the Marantz, or would it be just as good to buy something cheaper?
Secondly, at that price range, is there anything else I should consider?
And one final one. Is there any point in upgrading the interconnect? (Currently an Ixos Gamma 1002)
Thanks everyone.
