I should also add that I use a DVD sony DVD 999-ES (bought it for $139) player that was modified by Dan at Modwright in Oregon. His modification (about $1500 in 2010) includes adding a separate power supply and output tubes to the DVD player modification. I have used it for 12+ years and it is awesome sounding!
What CDs to buy
I never thought I would get a CD player but opportunity knocked a couple months ago and here I am with an Audio Research CD6. All my CDs from 30 years ago are mostly music I no longer listen to much. I primarily listen to vinyl and stream but thought it would be cool to have an AR top loader and maybe seek out a few special CDs. Any thoughts on specific CD releases that will give me some renewed respect for the shiny discs?
