I Have a CD-DSP. Best sounding player I've owned or heard. Was able to even better it's sound by connecting digital out(optical) to a Krell Studio processor. The other players I've owned have been Krell KAV 250cd,Nakamichi CDPlayer1 Nakamichi OMS7II and Nakamichi MB10.
Review: Krell CD-DSP CD Player
Category: Digital
I have used my CD-DSP in my system since the start, and have had the opportunity to borrow my friend's Naim 3.5 with flatcap power supply to compare the two. If price is no object and you enjoy spending, i would honestly have to say to get the Naim. However the difference was slight at best and a used CD-DSP can be found for much less than the Naim; the sound difference took several rounds of switching back and forth to notice.
I enjoy listing to classical, and classic rock. I have never been dissappointed with the performance of my Krell. Vocals sound awesome, as well as cleaner bass when compared to other players i've used.
In addition, this player has 3 digital input and 3 digital outputs (1 optical for each), so you can use it as a transport, or as a DAC for other digital equipment.
