Hi,
Like to have opinions for 3 cd players I've found .
AMC CD8/DAC 8
Marantz cd 6000 se
Philips cd 850 mk2
They are pretty old in age, but are in superb condition.
Any feedbacks pro / cons welcome . , Thanks

    I would choose AMC in that bunch.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

    I'd say the AMC also....of the three probably the most musical. Here's an article to chew on.

    "Appreciation of audio is a completely subjective human experience. Measurements can provide a measure of insight, but are no substitute for human judgment. Why are we looking to reduce a subjective experience to objective criteria anyway? The subtleties of music and audio reproduction are for those who appreciate it. Differentiation by numbers is for those who do not".--Nelson Pass Pass Labs XA25 | EE Avant Pre | EE Mini Max Supreme DAC | MIT Shotgun S1 | Pangea AC14SE MKII | Legend L600 | BlueSound Node 3 - Tubes add soul!

    NM, I forgot I chose to not recommend gear in this place. They are all generic players, the AMC would be the standout.

    Hi Dorokusai n H9,
    U guys are right ! AMC really sounded alot lot better that the others. I believe there are
    much much better cdp than AMC, but for the time being, I've settled for AMC which is
    cheap n good. I bought it for USD130/-- Thanks alot for the feedbacks. cheers !
