MHZS CD player

Don't take this as rude, but - why do you care? It's a Chinese-made CD player. Why do you need to know the specific source? If you really need to know, I guess Pacific Valve can tell you. I haven't heard the MHZS players, but they are highly reviewed. I have owned the Doge6 and it is a great player. If you can swing the money, that's the way to go,IMO.

MHZS was highly criticized for using a cheap BB dac and claiming it used some super high-end thing. Keep in mind that the person who "outed them" still said the player had high build quality and sounded great.

Owned both a 33 and 88. Very stout players, some of the heaviest i've had. The 33 was great with rock -- forward, rhythmic, good bass. Nice soundstage. The 88 was more refined and tube rectified. but can't remember much more. I didn't like the buttons on the 88 -- they stuck. Pac Valve (Joe is whom you'll talk to) seemed to be on it. Never an email unanswered or a phone call not taken (even on Saturday!)

I started with them as their stuff was cheaper then equivalent -- not bad, but I sort of graduated from Chi-Fi. May revisit at another day, who knows. Wouldn't hesitate to deal with them again. If you're thinking of buying one they are very good players for the $. But you probably won't resell them for near what you paid for them. See if they have any demo gear, I bought my 88 this way and it was ~$200 cheaper.

Regarding Chayro's post, there's a lot of info out there in Google land concerning cheap parts in the MHZS and touted as something more. I recall someone named Lampizator (a European audio modder) who took apart some MHZS players and 'exposed' them. Still, and you'll find this also, the proof is in the sound, and they sounded fine.

It's not just the cheap dac, the caps used in it are fake as is the transport which is not a sony as claimed.

Yes, Lampizator - it was an interesting article, as after he tore apart the company for the misleading info, which was justified, he described the sound as "10 out of 10 for people who don't know better". Despite the left-handed nature of the compliment, that sounds like high praise from someone trying to portray a product as fraudulent. It must sound pretty f'ing good.
