Anybody have direct listening experience with these two? I'm leaning towards ZENith (which has a CD ripper built in) because I have all my CD's still and think that I may have to re-rip them for better SQ. I previously ripped them on my Dell laptop and have those files on a simple SSD. Obviously I am leapfrogging into a different realm with these two flagship quality machines. First question is which one has overall better SQ in your direct listening experience and second is there going to be a marked improvement if I get the ZENith and re-rip all my CD's as the ZENith ripper I assume is better for audiophile use than my laptop ripper - or it's not worth it as I am done buying CD's and the quality upgrade is not worth re-ripping everything? Looking for advice from those in the know...….
