I think I saw this Sony CD player for $199 and up that has digital outs, of course they are COAX type. Some places to check them out would be jandr.com
Best Sounding Portable CD Players???
I just bought a used Headroom Cosmic headphone amp with the BaseStation power supply upgrade through an auction here on Audiogon. I am looking for advice on the best sounding portable cd players out there to replace my 10 year old Sony. I will be using Sennheiser 580s with this setup. Headroom recommends the Panasonic SL-SX460, and I remember reading something in Sensible Sound a while ago about a good Optimus unit, but that's all I know about portables. Any advice out there on portables I should listen to?
