| Best Integrated, period. Trigon Energy. Heard it at the Jacksonville 2012 AXPONA show. Went to listen to a Audio Physiks demo and came away impressed with the integrated. It is one of the most accurate and musical HIFI components I have ever heard. It is a steal at 5k. | |

| Used players better than $1.2K 13 yr old player? "10-02-11: Jdub39Might have been inadequate burnin time, Its 500 to 700 hours to settle!" Agree, it does take a substantial amount of time to breakend. The Oppo is a serious bargin that bested my 5X the price five year old universal player. | |
