    I've done a bit of overtime this last week or so and can afford a few extra quid to throw towards my hifi.

    Currently it's a Primare I30 + CD21 running some Quad 22L2s

    Which would give me the best overall improvement, Getting a Primare power amp to bi-amp the speakers or upgrading the CD player to the CD31 , both are about the same price ? (given that the current CDP would be sold to compensate)
