Is the Cambridge 840c the unit with two DACS? if so i found it to be very "cold" sounding, but it is supremely clear and very detailed especially in the mids and highs, mind you i tested them on elac speakers known to be overly bright to some, i tested roksans' kandy series, creeks, arcam, cyrus and Quads etc... cd players on the same speakers, the Roksans and Cambridge came out as my final two choices, in the end the Roksans more suited to the kind of music i listen to, but if classical and orchestra is your thing, i still haven't heard anything better than Cambridge 840c in the price range even though i spent almost 2 months auditioning different CD players, but u better have some good recordings, the Cambridge 840c is brutal that way lol
