I'm using a Phillips PCDP & Audio Technica Art 7 (audiophile closed back) picked up in Taiwan & Ety 6. (Since back, I put together very budget loudspeaker system using Paradigm Atom & Si-5 T Amp.)
I've been thinking about logical upgrade path & one thought was Ray Samuels Audio Hornet. Sam Tellig & Stereophile very positive; Sam did note that Ray chided him because Sam's PCDP did not have dedicated line out. The Asian Phillips certainly doesn't: line out is inscribed on the left and "headphones" on the right.
Does the Hornet make sense at this time or would it be wiser to defer and get digital source amongst entry Cambridge, Music Hall, or NAD.
I should be clear: I listen to music home & don't carry PCDP; I had the Phillip in Taiwan because I needed it for lanugage instruction.
Appreciate any advice; many thanks,
