DVD player with excellent CD quality

I own the Sony 7700. Originally purchased a demo 7000 thought I should have the new 7700 and took back the 7000. The 7700 is ok enough but the 7000 had much better cd playback, and I mean alot better. The 7000 lets you adjust screen colors and resolution for dvd. Which when you go back to cable you didn't have to mess up adjustments for regular tv. I prefered the 7000 and wish I would have kept it.

My Panasonic A-310 sounds pretty good.

%*#%*&%@ DVD AND HOME THEATER AND SACD AND #$%&%$$ MP3 and GOOD 'OL STEREO IS DEAD! SO IS TASTE!

Of the comments made, I definitely agree going with Muse. Also, look around the net for a Sony 7000 as jcraig suggests. However, I would suggest the Theta David or Carmen transports and a good dac. The only thing I don't like about the David is the remote, but I'll be changing that. It's built around a Pioneer mechanism. Good luck!

I am merely talking about the Denon reliabitlty. They do sound ok, but why spend the money on something that doesn't offer you top notch build quality when you are spending top notch money. I agree, read the reviews and you'll see what I mean (5000 especially).
