Hi there
I'm looking for a new Amp and CD combo and have looked at the following, I'd be gratefull for any experiences with any of these and any general advice with my search :-
opps....connecting to Celestion Impact 40 floorstanders...91db-4ohm and listen to mostly rock ( though some country classical etc )
Marantz SA7001 - PM7001 cira £750
had Marantz CDs in past and always loved the sound and both seem to get good solid reviews...HI-FI Choice etc.
Denon DCD1500AE - PM1500 cira £850
Looks good spec and gets good reviews http://www.avreview.co.uk/news/article/mps/UAN/600/v/1/sp/ http://audioenz.co.nz/2006/denon_1500.shtml
Cambridge Audio 740C - 740A £1000
Very good reviews and I can go to the shop....
Arcam CD73 - A80 circa £550-600 on ebay.
Arcam always seems to get good reviews and no probelm with used Hifi had plenty never had any problems.
...............
Original 2008F CD - Dussun V6i amp circa £1000 ( inclu taxes )

I would prefer the simplicity and safeness of a UK deal but you cannot argue with the Chinia gears bang/buck.
If anyone has any experiences or views on the above choices and any recommendations on these or indeed any other combo's I'd be most gratefull.
cheers
Neil
