For me, one of the best CD players under £500/600 would be the Rega Apollo, which will also leave you with a fair bit of change. It's especially suitable for those that aren't too keen on CD's brighter/harsher treble.

Hi cs 1978

NAD C545BEE is also worth considering. At a RRP of £350 i believe the C545BEE punches well above its weight and represents excellent VFM.

Thanks

Agree with Rick. The Nad is an awesome player and nothing comes even close at this price point. A must audition!

I have read a few reports about the Sony SCD-XA5400ES ....

not sure if that model has been replaced, but some people who own them were stating that it was better than cdp's that cost considerably much more (in the thousands)

perhaps an ex-demo model can be found within your budget and perhaps worthwhile auditioning?

As above really; I think the best CDP's available under £500-£600 are the Rega Apollo and NAD C545BEE

i would try and find an Arcam CD73T for the lower end of that price or an Arcam CD192 at the top end

What's the rest of your system?

I paid £320 for my 192, so no need to bust the budget to buy such an awesome player. (RRP £900 IIRC)

Another vote here for the NAD.

I'm incredibly impressed with mine.

if you have £600 to spend on a cdp, perhaps take your time and also look at the used market and buy the best that you can afford for your budget ....

£549 gets you this Cyrus CD 6SE ... 5 star rating by WHF ... this is an ex-demo and has a 12 month warranty

£600 gets you this Rega Jupiter 2000 cdp ...

£750 (seller is open to offers) gets you this Moon CD1 ... 5 star rating by WHF

these are just 3 examples of what can be found on the 2nd hand market, and I am sure if you research and are patient, you will find a real bargain somewhere ....

don't be afraid to buy a good used cdp (mine is old, and I use it almost daily for more than a year, and never misses a beat)

Got my Cyrus CD8x for £350 and it's very, very good. Agree with Arcam recommendations too, i had the CD73t previously and have read great reports on the 192. Had the NAD C521BEE also, that was good so the other NAD's i'm sure should be a safe bet.
