NetWRX | I am an advocate of Dabs.com and have been surfing their site looking for a new cheap cd player but they have such a wide range to choose from that I don't know where to start. Can somebody please help me, by putting me down the right road as to make/model? |
eCoustics | You could start by browsing the CD player price comparisons. First you need to decide what extra formats you want the CD player to read, CD-R, CD-RW, SACD, MP3? Then decide how many discs the player can hold. Read the reviews, and choose the lowest price from a vendor you trust. |

(the 640 will use your amp and speakers for all its worth! peanuts! just remember...you get what you pay for. |
