Micro Seiki CD M2 / Luxman D500:
Has anyone ever had the chance to compare top 1541A Marantz CD95 or CD12s to other top 1541A machines like the Micro Seiki CD-M2 or Luxman D500?
DSJR perhaps?

I'm libor.
the Micro is better then the Luxman.....it is also balanced out so you can get advantage of XLR being even more quiet and better soundstage...it is build with wood and cast iron, so it is like a tank.....the sound is very natural and soft....there is even better version one Micro M100 and the total Micro cdm 2000X, but I never heard these....I still think that Marantz cd7 is the best....
I still love my CD72 from way back when
would the cd17ki stack up against todays offerings?
does anyone know which model replaced the cd17ki?

I believe it was the cd17 mk2 ki, then the mk3 ki. I had the mk3 ki but found it to be a little too smooth for my liking. I had also owned the CD6000 KI, which was brilliant considering it cost less than half what the mk3 cost. Still using an old CD6000 OSE LE I bought 10 years ago, doesn't uncover as much detail as any of the higher priced models but is very entertaining and I prefer the sound it makes to players costing 3 times its osp
i dont suppose anyone knows what is a fair price for a 17ki mk2 nowadays?
