Simaudio Moon CD-1

[Seth=L]

Mmmm. I have this CD player along with the i-1 amp.....if people claim they cannot hear the difference between a cheap player at a few hundred and a player costing 5 or 10 times as much is in my view 1. Partially Deaf....fair one. 2. Unable to afford the more expensive one and become bitter and view is warped by this envy..... or 3. Just plain stupid.

This CD player offers a lot for the money.....and trust me I compared many combinations of set ups and for my taste this one offered the right balance between cost and quality.

Matched with good speakers, it sound truly stunning.....

Well I have A.) owned and used a higher end CD player B.) I have very good hearing and C.) I would say ignorant would be a better word that "stupid" but I am not ignorant.

I am not saying that high end CD players have no merit, just that they don't make a night and day difference in SQ and in most cases they don't make any audible difference.
