I have been in an odd place regards Hi-Fi and music listening in the last few years, all my CD's, Tannoy Cheviots and Quad 33/405 combo were a long way away so I have been really using PC based services to play music, the few CD's I have bought have been ripped and put in OneDrive and played along with my Groove music pass music.
I had purchased a Pioneer receiver and a pair of Eltax 205's to keep me going but the source was effectively MP3's or whatever format Groove uses.
So a few weeks ago I cleared my house as I had sold it and became re-united with my CD collection, the Tannoy's and the Quad. My Philips CD101 isn't well so I popped out and bought a TEAC CDP1250 for £20 to listen to my CD's, wow what a difference.
So I planned to re-rip all my CD's using FLAC and use Groove. But not OneDrive as it doesn't support .flac unless it's local music and then play CD's on a "New" CD player when I find what I want.
I want to carry on using Groove as my wife has an Xbox, Surface pro and Windows phone like my setups and she can understand Groove.
But it all falls down on Groove on the Xbox One, it doesn't see local music so no FLACS.
Anyway enough of that, so this morning I put a CD in the Xbox One, and unless I had cotton wool in my ears when I tested the TEAC or unless I have become stupid, the combo of Xbox One as a CD player, using the Pioneer as the amp and the Tannoy's is superb (Even better when the Quad goes in to replace the Pioneer).
OK you still have to insert the CD manually, but then sit down on your fav chair with your cup of tea and say "Xbox, play CD".
Still in the market for a good CD player that will look good with the Quads, but heck the sound with the Xbox One is not bad after listening to Pentangle, Bowie and Gabriel I am impressed.
