Coolest looking cd player in history

The Shanling just looks kinda cheap. Like Jolida's stuff, they probably put all the money in that metal: lets see the price breakdown and the circuit itself. The Jadis is cool, it would be ultimately cool if the lid did the Krell thing: where it was clear and then when it closed it turned/changed black. The Oracle is alright, but didn't Sonic Frontiers or someone have one similiar called the Iris or something like that that had a lid that opened like something out of Star Trek: a bunch of curved pieces of metal opened and closed, something weird like that and it looke like an eye. The Pi tracer looks like it came from Kinko's workshop for cutting stuff. At the really cheap end: I still kind of liked the look of the old Harmon Kardon TL8500 and 8600's, just just broke all the time. Aside from Jadis, the Audiomeca's were pretty too, also french. Other than that, I don't care what my cd player looks like.

Tweekerman-Not quiet, check out burmester or Boulder for the most expensive digital front ends, dCS may be up there haven't checked pricing out in a while.

Jdlepera...seems i've heard a well seasoned audiophile post something similar..."give me a break!..high-end audio has gone MAD...these companies can sell empty shells without anyone noticing"...i think i'll hold til i get a solid review...but if the review is as short as "All show/No go!"..i'll pass thank you

Jdlepera-I knew a girl like that once, very disapointing
