| Best ? STAND ALONE CDP for under $1000. CDN The old Classe players (cdp .5, .1), Some of the Sonic Frontier players. Made in Canada with good service and support. | |
| Classe Model 30 If you go for the old Classe pre-amp, the best for the money are those cp45, cp50, or cp60s. I had cp45 that filled my need and very quiet with balance interconnect. I love to own cp50 or cp60 (just did not like the digital display-red colour to h... | |

| looking for a warm ss amp.... Check out Classe, the used market is quite reasonable. I have been using Denon 2802 as pre-amp and Classe Ca201 as power amp to drive a pair of Maggies SMGc. Sound very warm and very musical. Please also check the IC and speaker cables to match up. | |

| What About MP3? You had a start up with a good system, why are you bother to feed them with garbage. That what people said "garbage in garbage out". You should get some good sources of cd and you will see how good your system could perform. Just a thought. | |
