LOUDEST Concert and Tinnitus
Slade Til Deaf Do Us Part tour, many Motörhead gigs, the last being in 2007 which got progressively louder until it was so loud I didn’t recognise Ace Of Spades or Overkill. Countless gigs over 40 years (mostly rock) where my ears still rang days ... 
Best Basic CD Player (no SACD, USB, etc.)
Out of your budget I know, but I was looking for a basic CD player too last year and ended up with the Bryston BCD-3. Fabulous player, but expensive.  
Best sounding CD player
Bryston BCD-3. Simplicity and great resolution.  
Eva Cassiday Blew Me Away with her cover of Wayfaring Stranger....
As with Aretha Franklin, Eva would make a song her own. Over The Rainbow, Fields Of Gold, forget the original’s!

Highly recommend the 2-CD + DVD Nightbird, the full Blues Alley show.  
Accuphase DP570 vs. Luxman D10X
OP, did you go with the Accuphase player? Looking at the DP-570 myself. 
Calling all (50 or less?) Falcon Kingswood Warren Edition LS3/5a owners...
@cbhifihobbyGot the T+A MP2000 arriving this weekend for demo. Don’t see a lot about it on the forums but looking forward to giving it a try. 
Poor Customer Service
Agree with the OP. I work hard for my money and when I come to spend it I expect the potential recipient to work just as hard to take it off me!Some companies these days don’t seem bothered whether you purchase their product or not. Have had many ... 
Upgrade my CD player or futile effort?
+1 for the Luxman D-03X. Great sounding CD player, excellent detail with a warm(ish) sound. Silent in operation too. 
My Last CD player
Luxman D-03X. Plays standard redbook CD’s a treat with amazing detail retrieval, soundstage and dynamics. A touch of warmth, but not too much. It’s also the quietest player in operation I’ve owned. As good as the discontinued D-06U and not too pri... 
Favorite cable brand.
Tellurium Q Ultra Black II.  
MQA actually tested
buck66I have the Luxman D-03X and agree that MQA discs sound superb. Standard CD’s also sound excellent on the Luxman. 
6000 dollars CD player
Luxman D-03X. Superb CD player and you save a few $. 
Esoteric K-03 or Luxman D-03x
Skip. Compared to my D-05U I found the D-03X is more detailed, bigger soundstage, more holographic perhaps. I don’t miss the SACD function as I only have a few hybrid discs anyway. MQA discs sound incredibly clear, but for me it’s just a great CD ... 
Esoteric K-03 or Luxman D-03x
I have the D-03X and have been very happy with it. I only play CD’s, don’t stream. MQA disc’s sound great on the player along with standard disc’s, very detailed with a big soundstage, slightly warm sounding. I had the D-05U prior to this and neve...
