Naim CD5XS on sale!
I just got an email from Dedicated Audio that they are selling the Naim CD5Xs at 40% off, which comes to $2395. I just want to say that I owned the CD5x and it is a really terrific CD player when combined with a Flatcap power supply. I’m just posting this for anyone who just wants a really good CD cd-only player at a very fair price. Stereophile gave this player a great review, which prompted me to listen to it.

Just an audiophile aside, when I went to the dealer, I first listened to the $1500 CD whatever they called it and it did not knock me out at all. I thought it was good, but no better than my Music Hall Maverick I had home. They then hooked up the CD5x and it was a different world. Much more realistic tonality and just much better IMO.
So I’m passing this on for what it’s worth, if anything.
