Your pick of CD player....

Thanks for all the info so far guys. I am going to be using Dans own pre amp SWL 9.0SE .I believe in Dan's products.. and what he does to make his modded Sonys truly great according to many who have gone this route. Now that said..I just have an aversion to bringing home a SONY to be the center piece of my Audio system. I have awefull memories of owing them, and was a certified Sony basher in the 80's.(mostly a fundimental philosophical issue with a huge company that was just out to sell as many products as possible..I felt Id rather support the smaller home grown talent)and yes...I know the AA is French made. ;-)

But that said..if you were to look at my system you'd find Usher speakers and a few Chinese based amps along the way..

But, I think Im leaning to the AA Prima in the end. Any other thoughts welcome..Thanks

Kehut,

Just saw a ZZ8 ad appear

Hi Ken :-)
Since you were at the house, my system is completely different. The only thing that remains from then is the 400CX.

I am one of the TRL Marantz sa-14 users. If you can get one, you might be, impressed. :-) For the money I'm not sure how it can be beaten. If you feel like making the drive - "stop by" and have a listen. ;-)

best of luck in your search.

Great Northern Sound Co modded Resolution Audio Opus 21. All I can say is wow! This player is very good.
