Strength:
open warm sounding player.Fair marantz like smoothness and bass the companies famous for,as featured in most models,the bigger brothers having better focus and a more extent over this ofcourse.
Weakness:
gets a bit muddled up in complex passages,but for the price it still sings. Marantz brought out the new 2000 models to replace old faithfull 67 etc.The previous models in there time represented good value,and marantz aclaimed best buys in numerous aspects.Since then they had to follow up on there praise,a bit of a wieght on there shoulder,bit have pulled it of very nicley ,bringing out the cd 4000,5000, and 6000 in three models. Similar Products Used: rotel,amc,denon etc |

Weakness:
none at this price All the positive things I listed above. A steal at this price. No problem w cd-r haven't tried cd-rw. This player alone kicked much more than with Parasound dac connected. Highly recommended. Similar Products Used: quad 66, nad 5000, nad501, parasound dac1000 |

Remote control, volume, coax optical out. Very cheap too.

Plasticky build Nice little player. Picked it up for 100 pounds sterling, which ain't bad. A real improvement on my mini system. |

Strength:
Value-for-money; Great sounding, despite the low cost; plenty of frills for the buck, nice & cute practical remote
Weakness:
General build quality; Disc drawer flimsy; LED display The CD-4000 is my first hi-fi setup ever. (All components - brandnew too). Just could not believe the ability of this RM580.00 (GBP105 or USD150) player. The sounds (IMO) is sweet, stable, has 'oooomph' and delicate at the same time. I am not familiar with the performances of other megabucks CD players. To me the CD4000 serves my needs with enough gusto and character. Similar Products Used: Nil - 1st ever system |

Strength:
best to value, Clear & accurate Sound, easy to use, can play CD-RW
Weakness:
LCD display is not clear, difficult to find this model I can't believe that I can buy such a high-quality CD player in such a low price. The sound is amazing and clear. When I was listening the Hotel California, the intro part was impressing and I could hear the every melody of guitar sound. I strongly recommend this CD player to all beginners. Similar Products Used: Sony CDP-CX210 |

Strength:
Audio is impressive,the possibility to read Cd-Rw
Weakness:
none for the moment One of the best cd i've never used. The sound is clear, and this is important for me. Other than this is possible reading cd-r and cd-rw. The remote is easy to use. Maybe the screen is not so easy readable, but for me is not a problem. Similar Products Used: Sony, Tecnhics |

Audiophile
Strength:
Full bodied, warm, open
Weakness:
slight muddiness, unfocused midband All in all a very "value for money" product. Although it gets to sound a bit messy during loud complex passages, this product is still best in its price range. An overall performer!! Similar Products Used: Sony CDP-XA 30ES, Marantz CD6000 |

Strength:
sound & workmanship (in relation to price), looks, remote, operation manual
Weakness:
none so far I got a brand new CD-4000 for as less as $130 on ebay, with a look at the quite high retail prices for Marantz-gear in Austria a real steal. |
