A Low Cost Pleasant Sounding Used CD Player?


My ancient Linn Majik CD player has recently died. I only play a CD maybe once or twice a month, though I do have hundreds of them.

Any recommendations for an inexpensive good sounding replacement player? Thank you in advance...

The Cambridge CXC Transport is often available direct from Cambridge as a refurb at a great price. The V1 and V2 of the CXC are sonically identical...for 1 or 2 CD's a month, an old DVD player as a transport sometimes can work great...

Sorry, I didn’t mean to be accusatory at all but was just confused but you cleared it up. My bad for not understanding.  I wish you the best of luck in finding a good transport. 

Sony or Pioneer Elite. Look for a good transport (CD spinning system/design)

Whatever the OP chooses, he might want to research whether the laser mechanism can be replaced if it fails. There are a number of good CD players and transports out there, wherein the laser mechanism is no longer available. Essentially guaranteeing a boat anchor if the laser fails.
