Onkyo C-7070 Reference CD Player: Are these any good? What are they similar to?

Hi, 

Does anyone have any experience with this player?  Is it any good? What does it sound like? I see this player incorporates twin wolfson dacs, separate power supply headphone amp and integrated usb for apple products. 

Thanks, 
JSB

I have never heard the 7070 but have used one of their recent multidisc players and it sounded pretty good for what it was.  The 7070 should perform pretty well and is built pretty well from what I can tell.

No experience with this player, but I have always liked Onkyo products for sound and reliability.  I think the headphone amp is a good feature if you do any serious headphone listening.  I recall buying a $200 Onkyo amp from Amazon while waiting for my $4000 Mastersound to arrive from Italy and the little Onkyo did not embarrass itself at all.  Others to look at in this price range are Marantz, Cambridge and NAD, but you are never going to hear them all together for a demo, so I would just look at them all and buy whatever intrigues you.  Good luck.
