Worst CD player

"Maybe the rest of your system was responsible for the 'crappy' sound."

Nope, my 35K system sounds wonderful, thank you. The Marantz not only sounded like crap in my system, but it also wouldn't read many of my disks. After 2 trips back to factory service, I gave up. I am using an Esoteric player now and there is absolutely no comparison.

I am not sure what price has to do with sound quality.

'I am not sure what price has to do with sound quality.'

It's an Audiophile thing. Most other people don't get it either.

A many way tie between all the ones that do not function. Suggested tie breaker; the one that originally cost the most loses.

"It's an Audiophile thing."

It is a misconception among some audiophiles, but not all.
