New Cambridge CX Series 2

Cambridge is about to release several new versions of the CX line of gear. I haven’t dug into any upgrades yet, but hopefully they make some nice changes given the price increases.

    So the CXN V2 is getting a $200 price increase?

    Shouldn't it be called CXN V3? Or are they raising the price for the same product?

    I’ll be looking forward to what you learn, Skip. I was looking at their current transport and wonder if the upcoming CXC is worth the extra $150.
  • No more black units! Can I jump on a black CXC for the normal price still? I don't need it yet, but I figured my current CD player is bound to die at some point and the CXC seemed like the most logical successor.
    It's disappointing to see the price increases on units that aren't really getting updates, but business is business I guess. Glad I got the CXN when I did.

    Also that's an awesome compliment from a manufacturer Skip. Sounds like it was a productive meeting.
