Not knobs, but analog volume control ... Resolution Audio CD-50 and 55, Theta Miles, Proceed CDP and Levinson 39 (sort of analog) to name a few more.
a conspicuous model by its absence thus far: the accuphase 75v. digital volume control that will not degrade the sonics by rolling off high and/or low end at varying output levels, as will the "analogue" pots. you can't appreciate the best unless you audition this one-box player. trust me; i'm a lawyer. ;~) -kelly
Ah !!!! A debate.
Cornfedboy it has been my experience that exactly the opposite of your position is what I have heard. Ihave owned the Accuphase DP75, Levinson 39, Theta Miles and both the Resolution Audio CD 50 and 55. My refence still remains the CD 50. Digital volume controls drop bits in its efforts to achieve dynamics and volume. I get much more detail with a true Analog volume control. Resolution Audio goes a bit further in that they have a true dedicated pre amp section. The transparency that can be achieved by going direct to amp from this design is better than any digital or for that matter separate pre amp volume control that i have ever heard. My opinion, yes but i have actually bought and sold many differnt CD players to learn this including the one you mention. Have a great day. Enjoy. Jim
