Hi,

 

Has anyone heard the Marantz PM6004 amp with Marantz CD6004? I just bought the amp and wondered what is a good CD player to partner it with. Am I better going with the CD6004 or something like the Audiolab 8200CD?

I am currently using a Rotel RCD 9658X which I understand was good in its day, about 20 years ago! I am using Linn Inde II speakers.

 

Any help gratefully appreciated.

 

Cheers

What's wrong with the Rotel?

Thanks everyone,

Nothing wrong with the Rotel at all, just thinking has CD technology moved on in the past 20 years and can I get a better sound?

It's still very highly regarded in these parts despite the age. I almost went for one on Ebay to try it as a replacement for my KI

Don't even think about taking the CD6004, marvellous pair for the money, already tried the USB port with some WAV files, I'm truly amazed, take it and enjoy it...

cheers,

k.

Hi MC500,

Does this mean that your Rotel is for sale?

Cheers
