Parasound C/BD 2000 Belt Drive CD Transport

Why Do You Still Have Vinyl if You Don't Play it?
Why Do I Still Have CD's if I only play vinyl now ? CD's for me are for the car or for live music recordings that I have done or obtained from others. CD playback when compared to vinyl counterparts on my system is inferior.

Stand out phono stages
