| A Low Cost Pleasant Sounding Used CD Player? My goodness - what a wonderful outpouring of suggestions, experience and wisdom! Many thanks to everyone who has responded. I have a few requests out on Hifi Shark, so will wait patiently until something of appeal turns up. I'll let you know! T... | |
| A Low Cost Pleasant Sounding Used CD Player? soix: I feel a bit on the defence - sorry for your confusion but I was initially looking for reccomendations of a simple replacement CD player until someone suggested using just a transport, which is possible since I own a DAC. For a couple of CD... | |
| A Low Cost Pleasant Sounding Used CD Player? Regrettably, I don't have any SACDs, though I am very curious to hear one on a decent player. Richardbrand: Are you suggesting something like a SONY UBP-X800 universal player? | |
| A Low Cost Pleasant Sounding Used CD Player? hbarrel: transport only might be the best bang for the buck. (I bought the Majik because the transport mechanism was machined in Scotland by Linn!) At the risk of sounding trite, what does it sound like? Thanks for another good idea... | |
| A Low Cost Pleasant Sounding Used CD Player? So many suggestions, thank you. (Yes, I would be using an external DAC.) | |

| How close are you to being to your endgame? My system outline and I'm almost there. Endgame? No such thing for me! I enjoy the endless exploration of tweaks - snake oil for some - as they can make surprising differences. The 'better' the system, the more obvious it becomes that 'small things' (not necessarily inexpensive!) can... | |
| Help to Identify AC Connector Thank you both for your help! I'm happy to direct wire the socket, but I wasn't sure of the gauge or force required to push the wires in. The manual helps and obviously a solid conductor is best. I will play with it... On the side: I find that ev... | |
| B&W 802D1 - How can I tame the brightness? Tekton Double Impact loudspeakers will blow your musical mind - and leave you with lots of cash to put towards high quality sources. | |
| Moon 390 Network Streamer I have been using Moon 400Ms with my Moon 390. Effortless, detailed and spacious, yet very musical. (I understand the 400s use a proprietary transistor which might be their secret to wonderful music-making.) Go for it (them)! | |
| Moon 390 Network Streamer I have owned a 390 for a couple of years and have been very pleased with its sound. I tend to be a tweakaholic, and the Moon 390 has never failed to reveal the most subtle of differences in my explorations. Customer service is excellent: prompt,... | |
| Discerning a difference between streamers is difficult...only me or common for all? My explorations over the years have led me to understand that differences between components can be minor but significant improvements could be had by spending attention (and money!) on modem, router, their power supplies, acoustic isolation, the ... | |
| The End of My Search for a Power Conditioner Does anyone have experience with how the Furman-IT Reference 20i, a classic professional power conditioner, stands up (or falls down) against the above mentioned conditioners? Experience please, not cconjecture... Thanks in advance! | |
| Which External Linear PSU Upgrade for my Router? I replaced my two (modem and router) LPSs from Aliexpress (complete with iFi DC Purifier and Bybee iQSE) with a 12V deep cycle automotive battery, which is only charged when not playing music. Moved my listening experience from mid-audience to fro... | |
| Coaxial Cable Recommendations rja: Thanks for the recommendation. An interesting product - not sure about affording 25 feet of it! |
