I am in the market for a CD Player. I have been looking at prices and reviews of both new and used equipment. I would like some advise on what to purchase. Right now, I have a generic 14 year old JVC CD player that I have had since college.
I have about $550 to spend, but I would love to spend less so I can buy more music! I will be playing regular CDs and CD-Rs. I probably will not be buying SACDs or DVDs anytime soon as I am a two-channel guy. I listen to a lot of jangle pop, power pop, ethereal pop, and post punk.
Here is what I have been thinking about: Used - Linn Mimik II Rotel 971 Rega Planet AH! Tjoeb '99
New - Music Hall MMF CD 25 NAD 541li
My system is as follows: B&K ST-140 amp Polk Audio Monitor 7 speakers Onkyo Integra P-304 preamp Superphon Revelation II preamp (currently getting upgraded with Black Gates caps)
I also am a big fan of the music hall, it is a great player for the price. I also like the Linn Mimik, but they are different sounds, listen for yourself and goodluck,
