Very Good Thread!!! Thanks to Mr Peabody and Frenchmon for taking the time to share their thoughts with us... I love hearing the experiences of Forum members...

Mr Peabody, I'm glad you got to hear some of the Rotel 10 series gear... as Rotel has moved for a far more lively sound that what you're used to from them... I believe the 15 series is even more exciting... Also, it's good to hear your opinions on affordable CD players in comparison to some of the high quality gear you own... it helps give us all some additional insight...
