Hi,
I have a Micromega Stage 1 CD player which I am using as a transport for a Channel Island Audio VDA-1, along with a Rega Mira amp. I am looking to change out the CD and I don't know whether to go for a modern CD player like the Rotel RCD-1072, or use something older that might match up better, like the old Rega Planet, and keep using the VDA-1.

Is a modern CD player like the Rotel so much better than my 10 year old Micromega coupled with a modern DAC? Any thoughts would be most welcome.

Thanks
