Best Red Book CD Player for under $120

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.

Have to disagree with the dis on the wonderful Rotel 855 player. I liked it better than a Musical Fidelity player, an Arcam 73T, and the new Rotel 1072 in my system. Maybe not as accurate, but more fun with great bass, musicality, and excitement.

Not sure what I'll do when my Rotel 855 finally dies...
