    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

    Means it may have a Marks or something slight that renders it not new

    Personally, I'd feel inclined to stick to Rega. They sound decent enough and at least you can get them serviced or repaired if need be. Spend any spare cash on a good DAC.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    To be honest, I'm a little disappointed with the Rega. I bought it specifically because I thought the top loading mechanism would make the drive more resilient than a drawer mechanism. It replaced a TEAC VRDS7 that had died due to a faulty drawer. I had to send the Rega back to the manufacturer a year or two back because it stopped playing disks. Someone else I know had the same fault. I just don't think the electronics are that great in the player.

    I agree, but as I mentioned in another post, the Marantz is too wide for my requirement.

    I discounted this when I first spotted it, but I'm going to put the Denon DCD-50 on the possible list.
