What is wrong with a regular CD player that plays MP3s just as well? Or a DVD player that can handle the same task. Surely, you don't think that a compressed audio format sounds better if there is a dedicated component for it?
Well Berny, the system is my room. The DVD player is downstairs. I have an extra CD input on the AMP. I have so much music on MP3 CDs. I was thinking either this or a dedicated hard drive player. I know MP3 is not all that which is why I would like to play my WMA files which have been saved / sampled in CD rivaling quality - if not better.
