Eastern Electric Tubed CD player: Good Value??


I want to upgrade my "original" Sonographe CD player. I have read a few reviews of the Eastern Electric Mini-Max Tubed CD player. Would appreciate any feedback on the performance and reliability of this product. And...will it represent an upgrade over my Sonographe??

Don't know about the Sonographe, but the EE Mini-Max CD player is a great deal for the money. Very smooth and musical.
Giant Killers! The Minimax preamp is one of those little known products that once audiophiles find out how good it really is, it will be hard to find one for sale. Further if the Minimax preamp is an indicator on how good the rest of the product line is, then they should qualify as a superb bargains as well.
I had this player for about three weeks. I want to emphasize that I was pleasantly surprised and pleased with the sound and performance of this product out of the box and not even broken in yet. I ended up returning it because the front face plate was ever so slightly off kilter and the four rubber feet were off balance. Other than the cosmetic and balance issue, I would have probably kept it and been very satisfied with it. Hopefully my case was just an anomaly.
