Alternative to Bryston BDP-1 for a cheapskate?


Found CD-P800NT on TEAC website. Network/CD/USB player that can play everything, including DSD, from USB thumb drive. Not much info other than 2 user reviews in Japanese that didn’t make much sense after Google Translate was finished with them. I’d be using it as a file player/CD player, no network. Hopefully, USB playback was not an afterthought. Please chime in with your thoughts on this or TEAC in general as I am not familiar with their gear.
Thanks

You've asked for an impossibility, but with your casual reference to "cheapskate", I think you already know that.

The Bryston player and it's peers ( e.g Naim, and Linn ) are very fine premium kit designed to work with their high-end DACs and other high-end system components.

There is an irrefutable tenet in this hobby: you get what you pay for.

There is a large competitive arena of cheap build and limited performance digital player alternatives in the low-fi to mid-fi strata. But none of these as "cheapskate (?)" variants warrant any comparison in performance or build quality to the Bryston or it's peers.
Thanks Akg_ca. Upon re-reading my post I completely agree with you. I was interested in opinions on TEAC and should've omitted any mention of Bryston. I'll just rename my post.

TEAC CD-P800NT appears to be identical to TASCAM CD-240, which I also cannot find any info on. What draws my attention to TEAC is the ability to play DSD from the Network and from USB. Also, BurrBrown PCM1795 and some other goodies.

Thanks
Serge,
I hope my review of the Marantz NA8005 network player in the Reviews section would be helpful to you.

Hi Jon. Thanks for your reply. Sorry I missed it. For some reason I don't get the emails when there's a reply from this forum and I haven't figured out how to correct it.

Question regarding your Marantz NA8005: how do you control the USB drive playlist? Do you use remote app, the PC, or just front panel display? Thanks

Serge
Hi Serge,
I only use the front panel display with the supplied remote. The display font size is big enough for me to read from my listening chair about 10 feet away.
