Actually it's either CD or DVD player. I retired my old Yamaha CD player a few years ago because it would not play back MP3's so I started looking for a replacement. (And I'm still looking) But times had changed and now I heard that the way to go is to just get a bl-ray anyway because it plays CD's.
That's all fine and dandy in my book but the one other big thing I still want is a USB port. I'd be the happiest I think if I could go with a DVD that plays CD's though I should mention that I would be using this strictly for audio, but I'm worried, and this is from a lack of education on audio hardware, that these new fangled jobbers like the Yamaha BD-s473 Blu-ray plays not only Blu-ray, but 3D, DVD and other junk, and of course good old CD's. The other unit I'm considering (and both have a USB port) is the plain old Yamaga CD- S300
SO what I've been trying to get at here, many of us know the quality of Yamaha audio, but is all of it still there with all these new machines? In other words does it still have that solid Yamaha sound, if it's all loaded up for Blu-ray 3-d DVD and CD plus who knows what else or should I just stick with the single CD player? (I put all my music still on CD's)
