kev313 Posted April 23, 2002 Share Posted April 23, 2002 OK...looking for a new cd player. I am familiar with the raves for the old rega, but has anyone had the opportunity to compare it to the new planet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbflash Posted April 23, 2002 Share Posted April 23, 2002 I have the new Rega and I love it. Go to AA and search Rega. Danny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SOUNDJUNKIE Posted April 23, 2002 Share Posted April 23, 2002 The 2000 sounded nice after about 40 hrs break-in time. Cymbals had a great shimmer and tympani some great skin. Before that it was very thin and dry. Ultimately, I couldn't get past it's lack of heft(read build quality) and it WAS a bit touchy to vibration. It did leave me wondering about the Jupiter(?), however, at $1800 I wasn't willing to find out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbflash Posted April 23, 2002 Share Posted April 23, 2002 Sound, Have you thought about adding a DAC to the Planet? I like the laid back sound, but sometimes I would like alittle more of a b slapping sound. I have been kicking around the idea about getting an ART DI/O. I am closing on a house on Friday so it maybe awhile before I buy anything. Just wondering. Danny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SOUNDJUNKIE Posted April 23, 2002 Share Posted April 23, 2002 Actually, I sold it and have had a few players/changers in my revolving and evolving system since then. I am currently using a Dynaco CDV-PRO that I rolled a matched pair of NOS Siemens E188CC'S(7308'S) into. The sound is extremely good, especially given the total cost.
