What is the flavor of the year now ?


Because i know about 1 1/2 to 2 years ago it was the Jolida JD100, professional reviewers and consumers alike couldn't say enough good things about it, and how for around a grand, you can get the best cd player since sliced bread, but now, it's a piece of crap, entry level, no detail, blah, blah, blah. And everything seems to be able to just "blow it away", anyway, i'm just curious, which cd player is the pimp daddy of them all now ??

Maybe not yet on Audiogon, but the Eastsound CD-E5 is getting alot of attention. So much so I had to buy one for myself. Don't spend $1000.00's on other players. This $750.00 cd-player is amazing. I know it is an import and a warranty repair would cost some money, but you must hear what this player can do! I have had cd-players and transport/DAC combos that cost up to $4,000.00. This player is better. It has been favorably compared to $10,000.00 players.
The Cary CD-306 SACD player with 4 independant transformers on-the-fly switchable upsampling for 6K can compare with the best.
