Review 1 of 9
Price Paid:
$150.00
from Pandrup Summary:
Rather bright with strong upper bass. Sounds thin. Average value for many. I replaced my NAD due to the laser worn-out as temporary solution. It disappointed me but... plays. Strengths:
Quite good soundstage on some of CD, especially with electronic music. A lot of details. Fast bass if not to low. Quiet mechanic parts. Good facilities.
Great price. Weaknesses:
Rather bright. Vocals hiden on the second line. Not very natural sound and vocals with very 'industrial' style. Lower bass muddy and weak. Similar Products Used:
NAD C521, Rotel 02, Audio Analogue Paganini

Review 3 of 9
Price Paid:
$130.00
from JandR Summary:
I have had this cd player now for exactly 1 month. Let me tell you, everything everyone else said is true. This player will surprise you. The only reason I bought this player was because I needed a cheap single disc player that could play CD/R and CD/RW disc. As another reviewer said "I really didn't expect to hear a difference" but the difference was immediate. The clearity improved, and imaging got better. Bass is also much cleaner. This player also has a variable level output that allows you to bypass a preamp and go straight to the amplifier. I only thought players in the $1,000 range had this feature. Anyway this is well worth the money. If you want one, you better hurry, because they are going fast. Strengths:
Sound, Price, Weaknesses:
Does not "resume" play when a disc has been stopped (like my toshiba DVD player)it restarts at the begining of the disc. Similar Products Used:
Toshiba DVD player

Review 4 of 9
Price Paid:
$99.00
from eBay Summary:
If you're looking for a very good cd player at below $150.00, this cd player is a steal! It gives wide dynamics, clear, defined sound and is not too bassy. It was even better than my current denon cd player (M30 minisystem). I tried listening to a variety of musical genres: classical, jazz, downtempo, electronica, rock, indie, and pop and its performance was simply amazing. Its slim size also makes it ideal for cramped audio racks/cabinets making it a nice partner for your dvd player. Strengths:
fantastic definition and sound at an affordable price ! best in this price category, slim size Weaknesses:
has only optical output, would have been nice if it had coaxial output too... Similar Products Used:
Denon,Sony,Philips,Panasonic,Sansui
