looking for an "all in one" unit.


Is there a single box receiver(amp,pre,tuner), with a CD player built in? I believe NAD makes one but are there any other manus?

Has 100wpc integrated amp / CD-SACD player / 32 bit USB / SPDIF DAC / phonostage. It does not get more one-box than this.
Tiggerfc...first of all, the OP did not list a budget so I am not sure why you are voicing your opinion about how much the RZ-1 costs. Also, if you were to try to piece together a system comprised of separates that accomplished all the things that the RZ-1 does (integrated amp, CD/SACD player, DAC, and phono stage), you can easily go above it's retail of $6K without blinking an eye. So thank you Tiggerfc for your concern for the OP's wallet but why don't we let him decide what is good value and what is not. Why don't you spend your time being a bit more helpful to the OP and chip in a suggestion yourself for him to consider. I am sure you have not even heard the RZ-1, so how you are in a position to make a value judgement about it's price/performance is beyond me.
What's a manus?

I believe the OP was abbreviating: manus = manufacturers. So he was asking if there are other manufacturers that produce "all-in-one" units other than NAD which he is aware of.
