Hi - I have a Toshiba 4700 DVD player and an older Sony CA8ES carousel CD player. I always heard good things about Sony ES CD players which is why I got that one ages ago. And I've heard people say newer Toshiba DVD players don't do so well on CDs.
So today I did an A/B comparison of the same CD on both transports, same volume level, direct stereo, both connected with optical connections.
I'm not sure if I'm hearing what my biases above told me, but I think the Sony sounded better. Not much, but somehow a bit clearer??
What do you think?
One other thing... I haven't listened just to CDs on my home theater in ages, but Dolby Pro Logic II makes it HUGELY more enjoyable. (For the test I did stereo direct only, though.)
