Yeah...well I guess he's got plenty of suggestions to choose
from by now, eh? :P

Come on Jazze22....give it up, bro! Waddja get? You don't start a thread like this and then keep everyone in suspense for 2 and a half years.....sheesh!

I just bought a AH! Njoe Tjoeb 4000 with tube output. Is simply amazing. US$700,00 and ready to upgrade with an upsampler.

I considered the AH! Njoe Tjoeb 4000 but when I came across the Anthem CD1 on Audiogon and having read a good number of excellent reviews along with the six-disc capability plus its solid build (25 lbs), there was no doubt I would go for the CD1. At some point, I will get the outboard upscampler and swap its tube for a better one.

My personal opinion is you can't beat the Linn IKEMI for the money; this CD is ridiculously priced for the value and compares with top high-end equipment from most prestigious brands without a flinch when it comes to hearing the music, balance and livelihood. Try it with a good cable like the Cardas GC Reference and listen!!!

for what it's worth, the original poster here (jazze22) hasn't posted since January '01, and tended to type in all caps all the time anyway.
