I have a multimeter so ..Rated at 2v does not mean both players will output exactly at 2v when playing max signal.
So, first thing is to check if they are outputting same voltage when playing the same signal.
Also, if your amp and speakers have significantly higher noise/distortions than your player, you might not hear minor differences anyway between players. Do you know the measurements of your amp and speakers?
So:
Technics SL-PD787 Compact Disc Changer vs Sony BDP-S570 Blu-ray Disc Player
Speaker:
JPW P1.Two-way speaker. Sealed, 20 liter box, 8 Ohm, 89 dB, 2.83V / 1M.
Speaker elements:
Bass element: VIFA M21WG-09-08
Tweeter: VIFA D19TD-05-08
Headphones:
Sennheiser HD 555
Amp:
Harman Kardon HK670

Then see # 21 in this thread. And now this, ..this time.

It is the general information, some measurements on them I know nothing about. And absolutely nothing measured on my particular specimens.
Edit:
... look for multimiter ... I'll be back..
Edit 2:
Haven't found a multimeter yet but I know it's here somewhere. I will find it. Listens to the CDs. I have to say one thing it's damn spooky to switch players. Of course, I hear no difference between these either, even though I really try to detect difference. Spooky that it's zip, nada zero difference. I know that is the case (technically, theoretically) but to really test, brr it is almost scary in some way (although it is completely natural). BUT this time I will measure with the multimeter and then see if I can dot exactly which player it is (switch RCA, the inputs the amplifier).
EXACTLY the same headphones as well as speakers. So I do not hear a shit difference.
To all the subjectivists who think they hear small differences, with gadgets that in themselves have low distortion, noise. Sure. Come and visit. Do you dare to put a month's salary on that you can score right? You are more than welcome to me.
(Reservation .Are you young, like a teenager, and have hearing intact, able to hear really high frequency, so well then I do not know if you can dot differences between the players, maybe... probability not)
Get a grip, ..of reality.
Tomorrow I will return.
Additionally, yes it is not state of the art "High End Hifi" I am testing with. A pair of simple / normal speakers, amp perfectly ok. Neither bad nor good.With that said, I still have a very hard time believing that I would hear any difference with "High end stuff". Maybe but I'm skeptical. Maybe this can help, see picture.
