Best CD player now made.

THE ONE YOU HAVE. AT LEAST UNTIL ONE FORMAT EMERGES AS THE BEST FOR MUSIC. I BOUGHT A BETA VCR SEVERAL YEARS BECAUSE I THOUGHT THE PICTURE WAS BETTER. I HAVE A 15 YEAR OLD SONY THAT IS STILL GOING STRONG. I'VE LISTENED TO SEVERAL OTHERS AND THERE ARE DIFFERENCES. TO MY EARS THE DIFFERENCES ARE SUBTLE AND ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE FOR ME TO HEAR CONSISTENTLY EXCEPT IN A DIRECT COMPARISON. I DON'T WANT TO IMPLY THAT OTHERS DO NOT HEAR SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCES. OUR OWN EARS ARE THE BEST JUDGE OF WHAT WE AS INDIVIDUALS HEAR. PAYING MORE IS NOT ALWAYS AN ASSURANCE OF BETTER SOUND.

The Wadia 860 I'll put this player up against any player under $8K It simply awesome! Please contact me if you need any reassurance of it's calibre.

I do agree with Hoffa new Wadia 860x blows everything away,however it is expensive and for more modest option I say go for Wadia 830...for the money can't beat it.... happy listening

The Resolution Audio CD-50 beats any Wadia, especially the 830. Bring it by for a shootout anytime, cause this one is KILLER...

Sony SCD-1.It makes ordinary CD's sound great let alone what it does for SACD's
