| Need Suggestions on CD Player under 1k The Meridian 506.24 is a 2k player that I bought for 1k. It can now be had for even less. You'd be hard pressed to find a more musical & dependable player than a Meridian for under 1k. Phild, what are your picks? | |

| blocked recipient/eBAY long You answered your question really-since you no longer feel comfortable then by all means follow your instincts. As for staying with ebay, that's a personal choice. I've been a member for 3 years & transactions run the gamut. Here on A-gon ever... | |
| 508.24 Power Cable Suggestions? I made a DIY PC using Chris V's recipe #3 but used Furutech gold plated ends as they have superior gripping ability. I picked the Furutech because the Meridian only has two prongs to connect with. I have the 506.24 but guessing the 508.24 has simi... | |

| CD player with best dynamics? At this moment I have an ARC CD3 taking the place of my Meridian 506.24 for an extended audition & suggest you give it a listen. Unbelievable music coming from this unit. With the extra 2k you were planning on spending you could buy a few CD's. | |
| Regrets Probably the original Beatles albums I bought in 1965. I'd also like to have the Shahinian box speakers for my second system I sold 13 years ago & my old 1969 FLH. | |

| Mail Service Canada from US, "Who Shot the Eagle" Well said Lugnut! I'm employed indirectly by the USPS in that I work for a contract carrier who, by definition, has a contract with the USPS. When I applied for the job I completed both the USPS application & the contractors, so in essence I d... | |
