At present I have an Arcam Alpha 5 CD player working through an Alpha 9
amp and Mission Cyrus speakers.

I'd like to upgrade the CD player, but can't make up my mind on how
much to spend/ what CD unit to buy. I'd like to stick with Arcam.

Question - I know the CD player technology has moved on a fair pace
since I bought my Alpha 5, but I can't decide between these two players
- The now discontinued Diva CD82 and the new Diva CD73. I can get them
both for about the same price, and although the 82 is now discontinued,
I've been offered a brand new model with two year guarantee, but how
much better than the 73 is the older 82?

Anyone on here auditioned them both? I have read one review of 82 v 72
where the 82 came out well on top, but how much has the 73 improved?

Many thank's
