Anyone seen any good deals on CDPs?

[matengawhat]

Just want a cdp to plug into my headphone amp in my bedroom - looking for something on special don't mind if last years model - £200 max

There'll be a few - try Googling "hifi special offer" and see what comes up. Also, see the individual website for independent dealers - they sometimes get great deals that better even the web-only retailers. £200 - seek out used or ex-dem from dealers too, your money will go further and many offer a warranty thrown in. BADA Marketplace is worth cehcking too, but not a lot last time I looked at £200.

This might be worth a punt

Or the CD63SE from here

Or the Kenwood DP7090 which is a cracking player for the money (a couple of screens back from the Marantz) - £400 when new, £185 here so must be in near mint condition. That's a high price, so expect nearly new and no transport issues. Build is good and playback is fine indeed.

can pick up the Marantz CD6002 new for £209 which is well reviewed any owners?

Also found this during my search which is a bargain if anyone just wants a cd transport for their new dac

Not owned it, but heard it. It was a perfectly agreeable listen, especially considering the price. I think you would be hard pushed to better it at that price if you want to go the new, rather than second hand, route.
