The best CD Player for the money

Mindblowing...and I've owned a ton of expensive digital gear. Incredible.

By far the best FOR THE MONEY is the Technics DVD A10.
It was a former 900-1000 dollar player and sounds incredible.I found one cheap on ebay.It is built like
a tank and is very smooth and relaxed sounding.
No way you can beat this player for the money.

Another vote for the Toshiba SD 3950 DVDP. The sound isn't just good for a cheap player, it is good and it costs less than $60 w/ rebate.

I am using a 47 lab Flatfish and Progression Dac that is being powered by the Pure Power. Its truly amazing.

Having recently picked up a used Arcam FMJ CD23T, I must say that even at its new price, it is an impressive piece of gear. On the used market, it a bargain, for sure. The mechanism is the smoothest I have seen, the chassis is very well dampended, and the sound is very detailed and musical.
