You might be able to get a used Sony SCD XA777ES for around $1,500 -- $1,600. That's a great CD/SACD player.
CD Players $1,000 - $1,500 US - any info on Talk?
Current Considerations:
- Talk Electronics Thunder CD 1.1/2.1 (1.2/2.2 just announced)
- Rega Planet 2000
- QUAD 99 CDP (CD Pre-Amp combo)
- Cary CD-308
- NAD 541i / s500i
My Current System:
Quad 21Ls - NAD C350 Integrated - Pioneer DV353
My QUAD will become my multi-channel movie system - this CD player will grow with me to start my two-channel music system.
The Talk's are 500-1000 more than the Rega Planet 2k depending on the Talk model but I can find hardly anything on Talk Electronics/Saxon - anyone have any information?
The Cary might be in my price range but its just on the edge .
Any recommendations of used players or impressions of any of these players or any other tips would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Nathan K.

Since there isn't much info on the Talk's just thought i'd post a review (finally found one) of the Thunder 1/Cyclone 1 combination Talk Electronics Thunder 1 CD and Cyclone 1 Integrated I'm going to start talking to my local dealer to see if he is able to acquire the Jolida for me - I'm still a ways away from my purchase though so any other info anyone can supply would be great :) |
I seem to be answering my own questions - the Talk Thunder 1.x is essentially off the list now Talk Thunder 1.1 CD Review - unless the 1.2 is a substantial improvement. So far... Jolida 100A / Used ARCAM FMJ23T / Used Sony SCDXA77ES The Cary is out of my price range I've recently been informed ;)- Any other suggestions? Sorry for the review posts just trying to add to the knowledgebase about a company/player that I haven't been able to find a lot on. Thanks again! |
