I was never really a fan of the label despite some intriguing looking releases. The whole often seemed to be less than the sum of the parts, inadequate preparation, less than stellar sound and mixing (I know Cliff referred to no multitracks).
I'm also likely to be needing a new CD player. My existing one ( Primare) is having intermittent issues and is now over 20 years old. I'm very much inclined to go the same route with a CD transport as I've been using a standalone DAC for years (Moon). The DAC nicely handles digital inputs from my Minidisc player ( still gets occasional use) and streaming ( if I can be bothered to connect it !).
