Best Red Book CD Player for under $120


Hi, Just checking to see if there is any CD player that stands out these days as the best sounding unit in the $100 range? Thanks

The Toshiba 3980 is a darling with the moders and has a very nice chip set. Readily available at Big Box stores for $49.99
Hey Sugarbrie,

Good to see you around again, your insight has been missed.

Regards,

PS - Still got those pumps and purse?
An alternative is... if you have a DVD player, you could use it as the player and get a used MSB Link DAC.

The first generation Link DAC goes for $100 to $120.
There is no difference from it and the newest Link III in basic stock form. The difference is the newer Link DAC's can be upgraded with various plug-in boards for more horsepower.

Still a nice DAC in stock form, and for $100-120 it probably is the best bang for your buck if you already have a DVD player with a digital out. Once again also check eBay.

Matty... I passed the Pumps/Purse on to another of Gilbert Yeung's associates. Gilbert had sent me that pair just to play around with. I did not pay for them. They were fun to try out.
Dont bother with a 855 good back in the days dinosaurs walked around the Earth not any more with all the other stuff you can get.
Find a used Cambridge Audio Azur 540c cd player,a little more money than 125,but can be found for 200 or so,unbelievable good sound.
