Looking for new CD player....under $500

[jblnut]

Hi All,

I recall a thread about this sometime in the recent past where an unfamiliar (to me at least) new player was recommeded. It was a US company (I think) and the player had a rather unusual look to it. I think it had a brushed aluminum faceplate and some blue LED lighting if memory serves. I know I'm not giving much to go on, but if anyone could think of which company this might be I'd greatly appreciate it.

I've been waiting for a while to upgrade my old HK and since the changer in the bedroom just died, it might be time to shuffle things around a bit.

Thanks,

Not sure if its this model and something tells me its well over $500.00. That’s all I could find with some your posts keywords on Google image search?

Output connections: digital coaxial, digital optical toslink, unbalanced RCA, balanced XLR

Looks like it IS under $500 - its "just" $399



Even has XLR outputs - thats cool!

I've got an Emotiva preamp/processor on order - their prices seem reasonable - apparently its a US firm with offshore production (kinda like the old Adcom) ...
