My CD player needed a belt replacement a good while back and, to be honest, I messed it up. Rather than potentially make it worse I decided it would be best to send it to Marantz' authorised service centre.
For reasons that I can't entirely explain, having made that decision and boxed it up, it's sat in the spare room for about 3 years. But about 6 weeks ago I finally got round to shipping it.
It's now back, fully sorted and serviced, back in the rack and all connected in.
I reckon that it's probably been 4 or 5 years in total that I've been CD-free, so it was a wonder to pop a few disks in after an extended period of streaming.
I can definitely say that a CD10 - Rega DAC - Michi pre/power - 105/3 musical experience is far superior to the Sportify - pair of Echo Dot experience
It's like discovering HiFi all over again!
