hi everybody,
i think the musical fidelity a308 is one of the best players made for the money.the way its build is awesome(save for cd drawer and remote). you can find good used one for around $1850.the sound is very sweet yet musical and lots of detail.i also have primare d30.2 running thru bryston b-60 to nht st4's.the primare is also very good but a bit analytical and laid back in the midrange.i haven't tried the balanced outputs on the primare since both my integrateds bryston b-60 and moon i-3
doesn't have bal inputs.the most expensive player i heard was a new mbl in an all mbl system . i compared a308 with the mbl in the same system and the mbl has bit more tigther bass , high frequency ext. sometimes less is more.
for the money cant beat the a308.
