Need some advice on buying a c-d player


I have an Adcom GCD-700 C-D player which is giving me trouble. Tray doesn't open, and other functions don't respond when their buttons are pushed even though their associated light comes on. It served me well for 13 years. Is it worth getting fixed? This was a great sounding unit. Any recomendation's on a new player. I would like to keep the cost around what I paid for the Adcom, which was $600. I guess I'm looking for the best bang for the buck. I have a Hafler 9300 transnova amp, and Legacy Foucus speakers. I listen to all differant genre of music. Mostly Rock, Classical, Jazz, anything with good vocals. Also, do you think it wise to buy a C-D player 2nd hand?

Thanks all

I suggest start reading through the archives for a unit in your price range. There are many good players to be had. You can also scroll through all the offerings in the ads & start googling ones that meet your criteria.

I wouldn't hesitate to buy used but do your homework.
