Hi,

I'm looking to purchase a new CD player and am looking for the best product
to purchase.

My limit is £200.00 and any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanx,

Unlike most kit a CD player is the one item, I would not buy second hand,
too many bits to ware out and go wrong.

For £200.00 listen to the Marantz CD5000 at £150.00

Also the Sony CDPX500 £100.00 these two from Sevenoaks

And last Phillips CD753 @ £199.00 from Richer

If it was me, I would go for the Philips, I borrowed one to try out, and
its got a nice sound and good build quality.

Hmmm, are you sure you want to go the CD route? This group is full of
threads debating the highly 'variable' quality of many CDPs, there's a post
at the moment mentioning difficulties encountered with current anti-piracy
measures and the medium itself is on its last legs. (It's worse now than it
was 30 years ago!)

Why not consider SS (that's 'solid state' on this group AFAIAC) and do away
with all the frantic whirling and spinning and take half of the 'digital
problems' out of the occasion.

Better yet, try to hear a turntable (the above mentioned Debut will do for
starters) before you commit yourself - you might find you like it. (It's a
'quality' over 'quantity' thing...... ;-)

Now, stop trolling :-)
He wants to listen to music. Music currently comes on CD. End of

Forget about CD players, get a DVD player and kill two birds with one stone.

There are so many good sounding optical disc players these days that it's
hard to work up the energy to recommend just one of them.
