I've found the cd player for analog lovers

I'm the guy who said on Audiogon, "When is digital going to get the soul of music?". Let me just say that I've found the digital player that rivals or beats analog. No, it is not $40,000. Please read me on my thread! I do believe that there is much variability with cd's. So not all cd's are created equally. The player in question is APL Hi-Fi's Denon 3910. I've found that volume is really critical. Alex voiced his player while comparing it to analog. Let me just tell you that I used to get tense from cd. I'm not saying that all cd's will sound great. For instance, my friend bought a cd from Walmart that was Van Morrison's greatest hits. It was hard to listen to through the digital haze to the music on Alex's $19,000(not your price)cd player.

Dear Mmakshak : I read carefully your thread and I'm trying to understand the whys your CDP even/beats your analog system: if it that possible I would ask you which audio items form your 10K analog rig, which electronics/speakers and cables?

Regards and enjoy the music.
Raul.

I like good music and I don't care where it comes from. Let' face it digital keeps getting better. Some things it always did better than analogue. I've never heard the Denon. When I invite friends over I am not not going to get up constantly to clean records and turn them over. That means that except for the most critical listening sessions that's digital.
However digital remains like a clone without a soul.
