    Has anyone listened to the Arcam CD73T and CA 640C side by side?

    On paper they look very similar - Same Wolfson DAC and Sony Transport but quite a difference in price (Arcam is £150 more). Are you just paying for extra features such as CD text, build quality and reputation with the Arcam?

    The Arcam is ever so slightly better than the Cambridge (Bass weight, little bit more attack) but bearing in mind that the build is pretty similar and the Cambridge has a better remote to boot, you may end up saving the £150.
