Good question Jason GT.
I have often wondered the same thing. Although I am happy with the CD & DVD-A (the former via coax & the latter analog of course but with digital conversion at the AVM-20) sound of my Panny DVD-7A it is now many model years behind in technology. It is built like a tank and will no doubt continue to function flawlessly for many more years, but I got to think some of the newer players offer audio improvements.
I have considered test driving other players but I would like to keep the list as short as possible. The problem with deciding on a shortlist is the question of whether or not it should be strictly CD or a combi-player compareable to my Panny. As DVD-A is being converted to digital by the AVM-20 it seems thst as long as the player is supplying input of reasonable quality there would be little difference in sound from player to player. If this assumption is correct should I try out CD only players?
