i own an audionote cd2. selecting an appropriate tube makes this player a worthwhile audition. in addition some of the older wadia gear is pretty good, as was the forsell dac and transport.
Just keep a eye on Ebay,you'll find one,still kind of in shock on how it sounds,is it mostly attributable to the Philips chip,the transport,cant imagine it has a big power supply in it,but they did something right.
coffeey, does your unit have a remote? have you ever heard nad cdp? i think it would be worth the money if i can find one. do you have any idea which older mag units have this specific chip? cheers
the theta miles with balanced outputs, was $2495 new now can be had for around 7 to 800 dollars. a fantastic sounding cd player, with a analog volume out, one of the best sounding cd players I have ever heard . chris
A lot of people out there feel the Sonic Frontiers stuff is still right up there.
For me, a long time ago, I was with the two local guys who were building the Timbre DAC, and I have to say at the time it was the first digital piece I'd encountered that really struck me as something that could finally make the case against analog. Of course, I'd like to hear one today to see if that was just a feeling that was relevant for me at the time, or something that has held up over the course of my audio journey.
