Northern Oak 0 Report post Posted April 4, 2003 ablaze, are you going to get a cd player soon? I think I am.. just wondering whether you are too.. maybe if we go down together can get slightly better price? hi Guyferd, Care to share what CD player you have in mind? I might be getting one too.

ablaze 0 Report post Posted April 4, 2003 the NAD541i seems like a popular choice.. N@Z, you missed my pm! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
N@Z 0 Report post Posted April 4, 2003 Thanks, replied! Yeah the NAD541i has HDCD decoder as well. I really like HDCD encoded CDs. I nearly got it to replace my CDP but I really wanted the RS-1! So many gear, so little money! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Northern Oak 0 Report post Posted April 4, 2003 I am looking at the NAD C541i and the Marantz 6000OSE. Seem likely that we can purchase together then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Northern Oak 0 Report post Posted April 4, 2003 Yes, thought so as well and maybe we should rope in N2Z cos' he's pretty interested as well. One thing, I am not good at bargaining. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gryphon1972 0 Report post Posted April 5, 2003 Just my 2 cents guyferd......the marantz cd4000 doesnt sound good at all.....its thin sounding....... Thats when I bought my NAD521 2 years ago I had a comparison.....If you want marantz, you would need to at least get a cd6000......if not its better you spend on the NAD521i......... Go have an audition .......and let me know if you agree.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
