Help Needed for CDP

[venk61176]

Hi,

I decided to buy CD player somewhere in the range of rs 50000.

My set up consists of EPOS M16i + Cary CA1 Integrated Amp.

My shortlist includes following

Exposure 2010S2(heard sounds more like tube over solid state)
Pioneer 9 GClef Series(Not sure where Can i get in India(Only player in this range to run two seperate DACs for two channels)
Arcam FMJ CD 17(Not sure why it is priced so high in india)
Evolution CDP from Creek (Mainly for Synergy)
Roksan Kandy(Dealer mentioned to me they are not importing)

HELP!!!!

Thanks
Venkat

There are plenty of decent cdps you can hunt for. Some would be available in your price range. Some would be more expensive, but buying a demo unit could bring the price down. You could also consider a used cdp, as long as it is in pristine condition.
Rega Appolo
Arcam CD 192
Arcam CD 17
Naim CD 5i
Musical Fidelity M3
The first two are excellent, affordable and easy to match cdps.

The only thing used/demounit i would avoid buying is a CD player due to lens life .
