What CD Player is Best??

BRILEY (Competent) posted this on Monday, 12th February 2001, 16:56

A mate asked me to look on the net for a good separate CD player for under £200 that plays CD-R`s.

Has anyone got one they recommend?

Any good review sites?

Any good companies to buy from? ( apart from Richer Sounds )

Any Info appreciated

I`d have thought that all CD players will play CD-Rs. Even my 8 year old Sony 797 plays CD-Rs. Its CD-RWs that most can`t play. Richers do a Philips that will play CD-RWs for £80, but I wouldn`t expect much in the way of sound quality at that price.

Under £200 I`d look at Sony, Denon or Marantz, though its worth looking out end-of-line, ex-dem and seconhand (sorry, previously cherished) stuff. I picked up a Marantx CD63KI Signature for £200 a couple of years ago when it was still £500, simply by buying secondhand from a local Hi-Fi dealer.
