BWLover, it is not easy to answer your question because the CDP202 was a CD + DVD player.
As a CD + DVD player, the CDP202 took its place between the CDP102 and the CDP502, both being CD + DVD players.
As a CD player only, the CDP202 should theoretically be the top of the line above the CDP102 and the CDP100. Though, I am not sure it is. The CDP202 runs a D/A converter with 3 x Burr Brown PCM1792 (for both audio and video) with an audio sampling rate at 192 KHz while the CDP100 runs a D/A converter with 2 x Burr-Brown1738 (two DACs in mono mode for left & right channels and dedicated for audio only) with an audio sampling rate at 352.8 KHz and a clock jitter < 2ps.
To be honest, I did not compare the CDP202 and the CDP100, which was their top player before the CDP102 and then the CDP202 appear.
