CD Players with Analogue Sound

Audio Aero Prima. The Capitole's baby brother. I own this baby. A real gem. It's got some toasty little tubes and a lovey sweet sound. Killer player, at a great price. This little baby can go tete a tete with the big boys--and hold its' own. Very hard to find, but I can turn you on to the dealer I bought mine from, if you decide to go that way. peace, warren

The Audio Research CD3 and Ayre are worth a listen. For much less, the new Classe is very good.

Inna, I like your sarcasm. Sugarbrie, I haven't heard the Cambridge or Rotel, but if neither sound no better than the Planet, low budget is suffering. I wouldn't go any lower in price than a used Jolida, and with that you will be narrowing the more for money gap considerably.

Speaking of nice, and also cheap, I have a Phillips 770 CD-R that doesnt sound bad at all. And as far as didgital sounding analog, my bros RA opus 21 sounds nearly as good as his Linn Lp12, and it cost about 1/5 of what the LP 12 did new. Thats saying something....
