Benchmark is the one I have now but I do not feel is a perfect match to my HD800 headphones. Although the Benchmark has plenty of resolution, the sound is pretty bright and fatiguing in time while the mid-bass and sub-bass seem to flat for my tastes. At this time I'm upgrading the amp from Bada PH-12 to a Sonett but I'm also seeking a better source at reasonable money. The 2 other players are said to be pretty smooth sounding wich I think will be a good match for the very detailed HD800. So, here's the questions :
1) Do you think any of them will better my Benchmark in sound quality and wich one would be your choice (Bare in mind we're talking about the older versions of both palyers)?
2) How do the 2 players compare at reading scratched discs and how reliable are they in time (this is important as I will buy one second hand wich means they can have 2-3 years of use)?
Thanks !
