    Default Cd/dvd player suggestions

    Probably the correct area to post this. Making some tweaks and thought it would be a good option to see what cd/dvd players members would suggest. Cd would be the primary use but having the ability to lose the DVD player would lose us a box. It could be a second hand unit but say a budget of around £250 to £500
    Oppo are one that springs to mind but I think they are a bit pricey .

    Thanks

    Oppo not made disc players for a long time but still a good option if you want to go second-hand. Not all of their models were expensive when new, I think mine was less than £300. Plays DVD, BD, SACD, DVD-A, and HDCD.

    ou might slip, you might slide, you might
    Stumble and fall by the road side
    But don't you ever let nobody drag your spirit down
    Remember you're walking up to heaven

    Don't let nobody turn you around
    … Walk with the rich, walk with the poor
    Learn from everyone, that's what life is for
    And don't you let nobody drag your spirit down

    Is this a universal player.? Looks like a nice unit but not sure it’s a DVD player as well

    Ah sorry Colin, I misread your original post. The Marantz is a CD player, doesn't play DVDs. If it's 'universal' you're after, try seeking out a good blu-ray player. Should find something decent with that budget.

    Is there still a demand for 'universal' players? I don't know anybody who uses Blu-Ray.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    One of these... I had one and it was really good. No HDMI though but the sound from the cd player/SACD is really nice.
