    Default Wanted - CD player (Linn or other)

    My Linn Karik is out of action, and I’m either looking for a semi-decent/cheapish player as a stop-gap until I get the Karik repaired or possibly a Linn replacement for my Linn system. Any offers (or indeed recommendations) considered - thanks.

    A marantz CD52 SE Mk2 if you can find one, but if not a Marantz CD50, or a single disc Sony would be good as a spare player
    should be a few of those around.

    Thanks - will look. Also notice the Marantz 6006 new seems to be decent for the price.

    I've got a Marantz CD52 Mk2 (not SE) in excellent working condition, complete with the original remote control.

    No original packaging, but I pack bombproof to prevent any damage when it gets dropped in transit.

    Yours for £60 if that's of interest.

    Magic - many thanks! I’ll have a think about that.

    I have the CD6006 UK Edition, bought as an "open box" from Richer Sounds earlier this year for £250. Looks and sounds great imo, and I don't miss the £1200 Densen player it's replaced one bit

    T/T: Inspire Monarch, X200 tonearm, Ortofon Quintet Blue. Phono: Project Tube Box CD: Marantz CD6006 (UK Edition); Amp: Musical Fidelity A5 Integrated.
    Speakers: Zu Omen Def, REL T9i subwoofer. Cables: Atlas Equator interconnects, Atlas Hyper 3.0 speaker cables

    Forget the past, it's gone. And don't worry about the future, it doesn't exist. There is only NOW.

    That’s interesting to know - consistent with the reviews I’ve read!

    Many thanks for the offers. I’ve opted for a used Marantz 6000 SE KI. Signature. Looking forward to using it until I get the Karik sorted.
