After researching several cd players, this looks like it will probably be my choice based on my budget. I heard this player at a local dealer's shop and it was impressive. If you own this player or have experience with it please post your comments, good or bad. Thanks.
Agree with M.R., this CDP is hard to beat in this price range, one of the best price-to-performance ratio IMHO....you'll have to spend more money to find a more musical player than this...
I just bought mine from eBay. It sounds very good to me. It is not the best but for the price I paid (AUD455). It is so far the best value for money. The human voice stands out and I am also satisfied with the sound stage and the image. The only trouble I have at the moment is to find a pair of interconnects to match it. But it sounds really good even on a standard (Red & White) interconnects. I am using a NAD T760 Amp and a pair of Monitor Audio speakers.
I had one in my system for 10 months and loved it. As others have said, it took significantly more outlay to better it. Oops, just seen this is an old thread - that's probably what Eric meant.
