I'd like to have your opinion about the purchase of a new CD player: Rotel RCD 1072.
My current sistem:
Onkyo TX-SR600E
Mains: Polk Rti70
Shoul I choose a CD player less "audiophile"? Or it would be a good choice?
Thank you in advance!

    The 1072 is an excellent choice. I've always liked Rotel equipment.

    If you're willing to spend the money, you won't have to upgrade your CD player for a while, if ever, after you buy that one. You may find yourself building your system around it.

    I have a RCD-1070 that's staying in my system for a long time, it's great. I didn't even know Rotel came out with another model.

    Buy the Rotel, I agree with the others. If you are willing to spend the money, get the most you can FOR your money.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.
