Chinese CD players vs. Arcam

I'm not sure why anyone would buy a budget CD player outside of the Music Hall MMF25 CD player. Competes with most players out in the market as things are.

Trelja,

I kinda had it narrowed down to the Arcam 72 or 73t and the Music Hall MMF 25.

was just wondering about these other players, especially the ones with a tube output.

i just recieved a shengya tube cd player from china-very well built and sounds very nice-only 300$

Kray, I just sold my MMF25, and it was one heck of a player. I had to jump up to a reference level CD player to actually outshine it. I feel so strongly about it, I recently submitted a thread about the player

I have not listened to most of the new wave of Chinese imports, but the reliability, sonics, build quality, and having a Roy Hall behind the company make it a clear choice for me. Put it this way, I can't recommend the player enough to people, and if I ever need another non reference level player, I won't even have to think about it.

Trelja - what CD player did you end up getting?

can you compare the arcam and the music hall?
