Shanling in Washington D.C. Could it be?


I simply can't stand it any more, I'm about ready to
upgrade my cdp. I've heard Cary, Meridian, Jolida and
they all sound great (maybe even in that order)
But......Shanling is so damn cool looking, especially
compared to the above. I realize what's important here,
but with what Shanling offers; 24/96, HDCD,Tube or SS,
bypass pre. You get the idea. If this thing sounds even
close to the above, isn't it worth a consideration, considering the price?
I think so.. I live in the D.C. metro area, does anyone
in the said area have one I could hear?
Thanks,
Mark

I heard the newest version SCD-T200 at CES in Vegas. It was amazing. It adds SACD to the package and really sounds good.
I wish I could help you with a demo, I bought one of the modified units, this unit not only looks great but sounds fantastic and it is not even broken in yet. If your ever in the detroit area I would be happy to demo it for you
I own the Shanling CD-T100 (bought it in Canada last June), and I am extremely happy with it (even sold my tube pre-amp). If you are in the Los Angeles area someday, please feel free to contact me for an audition.
Disclaimer: I am a Xindak dealer.

Sorry to add possible confusion to what seems to be a decision already made, but before you go and spend the money on a Shanling T100/T200, you owe it to yourself to check out the Xindak SCD-1 (solid-state output stages) or SCD-2 (tube output stages). We USED to be a Shanling dealer, but then heard the Xindak. 'nuff said.

Not sure if there is a dealer in the D.C. area. Contact Jay Bertrand (the US distributor for Xindak) for your nearest Xindak dealer. His website is:

Mike,
Where in my thread did I invite additional options.
Respectfully, My interest is in seeing and hearing
the Shanling product in the DC area.
