Review 1 of 1

Price Paid:  $7000.00 from Jadis Hong Kong

Summary:
The has to be the most beautiful CD player under USD 10,000 full stop. The build quality, the top loader with heavy mechanical slide door. It also sounds superb.

Strengths:
The looks, build quality, finish, transport.

Weaknesses:
After spending most of the money on the transport and the casing. The DAC is not really the best in the market. Needs to upgrade to a better quality DAC
