This thread is a couple of weeks old but if you haven't bought a player yet, you should be aware that Music Hall has announced the replacement for the CD-25: the CD-25.2. The main difference in specifications is the Burr Brown PCM 1738 replaces the PCM 1732 and the Philips VAM 1202/19 transport replaces the Philips CDM 12.1. MSRP remains the same at $600. So far, AV123 has not advertised a replacment of the Onix XCD-88 (its version of the CD-25).
