I've been slowly getting digital back into the mix and have been reading up on CD players and which ones are supposed to sound good.
Got a Luxman D-100 to match a Silmic II recapped R-115 receiver. Was using a Panasonics RP-62 DVD player that has a 24bit/192 khz audio DAC (not sure what kind it is) and had read that anything with such specs should sound leagues better than an old 80s 16bit machine.
However, the Luxman sounds much smoother and just as detailed. Some shots of the guts...
Chassis
Electronics
edit.. not the DAC, correct one is TD6709N and hidden behind wire above
The black capacitors are lableled 'Marcon' I think and the blue ones 'shoei'
Can't tell what the brown one is or the metallic green ones.
Any suggestions if it's worth recapping or even needs it? Any potential modifications?
