David. Have you considered the Ah Tube. I think it sells new for a little more than what you want to spend, but I think I saw a used one on Audiogon a little while back. I think it has gotten some pretty good comments too. Just a thought. Doug
Rega or Sony from a "digital dope"
Im ready to take the plunge into a decent digital CDP.My main obsession has been analog.All my "education" has centered around analog so I know zip about CDP's.I like the looks and the reviews of the Rega Planet.There is one here for sale for $440.00 I have also seen CDP's in the $2000.00 range(when new) going for $4-$500.They are older Sony CDP's.I dont really want to spend more than $450 max.Should I grab the Planet or buy an older Sony? The bottom line is, the best bang for the buck at $450 or less.
