CD-player under US$1,100?


Now that CD-playback reached maturity, which are, in your opinion, those NEW CD-players that stand head and shoulders over the competition under $1,300 CAD (US$1,100)?

From what I listened so far, the only one that is in my budget and I like is the Chinese Original CD-2008 MK II.

Your "mods" are OUTRAGEOUS expensive. Most technicians can do the same mods for less then half price of yours.

Your business is not viable and I would sugest the potential cutomers to stay away.
Interesting. First time I've seen a financial analyst cry over the numbers.
Alex,

for you there is an easy amswer.

I think it's worth trying to demo a Rega apollo

I have not heard it myself, but a friend of mine was in the design team for the laser controller and data retrieval, and apparently the system Rega uses is far superior to anything in its price range. Jitter and bit errors should be far below previous budget transports.

Couple this with some glowing reviews, and many users reporting great sound, and I think it would be worth trying to get a demo of it. I would not buy it unheard, but it would be top of my demo list if I were replacing my player.
