maria bought me a teac cd player at radio shack and even though it's cheap it sounds WAY better than any player i've ever owned. including the one in my computer. maybe that's not that astonishing. anyway, it's making me want to play CDs and NOTHING ever makes me want to play CDs. i wanna hear all my kompakt CDs now.

get a dvd or Blu-ray player with optical out and run it to your stereo through a nice DAC?

f. hazel otm, though you could also just connect it with an RCA cable, same as you would have with a CD player in the old days

Or just drop by a Goodwill, where you probably won't pay more than $15 for a component cd player if there's one to be had (and there are usually several, some with wear but some that look basically new).

I just got a Denon cd player at this local electronics recycling place for $100 that was $1000 in 2009

Right? Considering the rate at which these things are being thrown away, there's no reason to pay full retail for a new one.

yeah I know I can get a blu ray player, I was asking about CD players with buttons and display for audio CDsYes I will just buy some random thing off goodwill Thanks

I don’t go outside, i don’t read about the rates at which things are thrown away

I recently bought a 1986 model Technics CD player off eBay for $50 + shipping (more like $100 altogether). It looks cool, has an appealing color display, plays great... and it's retro chic!

Ha! I'm looking at one of those now.. hmmm
