I've had this a while now. A truly wonderful player - I've really enjoyed owning it.
But the ol' box-swap bug is biting, so time for it to go! :)
I've promised to exhibit it at Scalford, so available then or thereafter.
Very good condition and perfect working order.
Remote control, original box & packing (but I don't think I have the manual).
RCA and balanced XLR outputs.
Variable output, so can feed straight into a power amp if you wish (personally I prefer it with a pre-amp).
Fabulous!

Cut & paste from the conclusion of the Stereophile review ...
Bottom Line
The Wadia 830 is an excellent CD player, in my opinion, and worthy of a Class A rating. Its performance was excellent on all accounts, and its precision—temporal, spatial, and timbral—truly outstanding. The result is a detailed, captivating presentation that manages to be both unusually vivid and very natural
... The 830 isn't just better than the best midpriced players, or even lots better—it's fundamentally better.
