This is an old kenwood cdp from about 7 years ago. Has anyone had one
who would like to comment on its performance. I would expect it to be
fairly bog standard as its a cheap mass produced product. However I
have compared it to 2 24bit 192Khz cd players, one of which retailed
at £1500 and has a valve output stage. I cannot hear any difference
in the sound. There is no revelation when I listen to an expensive
one compared to this. I have listened to it numerous times in demo
rooms compared to other cdps and have heared a difference there. But
not at home. I guess it might be my room or positioning of speakers.
BTW I have a pair of Zingali speakers and a Unison Unico amp. Not bad
kit. I should be able to tell a difference but I cannot.

Any suggestions.

True of a great many modern CD players.
