Folks, forgive me for starting a new ERC-1 thread.
I am currently playing CDs thru 2ch. analog on my Oppo BDP-83. My pre is a Yamaha RX-V665, I have an Emotiva XPA-3 for amplification and my speakers are Boston Acoustics VR970s. Bottom line; for the most part I think it sounds real good. One of the main reasons I bought the BDP-83 was for it's SACD performance. The problem is, my CD collection is huge, and I am just starting to get into SACD listening. So...........
Is the ERC-1 that much better of a CD player than the BDP-83? Am I truly going to notice audio improvement? About my music; I listen to everything from Pantera, Megadeth, Dream Theater, to Barry White, Sade, Tears For Fears, Michael Jackson, etc., etc. I love it all!
If anyone can please help sway me one way or the other I would really appreciate it. If the Oppo is as good as I am going to hear, I can sleep well knowing that. I just would hate it if there was better CD-playback available for a reasonable price, and I was missing out.
Thanks to all in advance.
