Looking for a cdp for around Rs 15000

Hi
Have a onkyo sr 505 with elac fs 58. Any suggestions for a good cd player for around Rs 15000. I also plan to audition pinoeer dv 600av if possible as I read some good reviews of it, inspite of being a dvd player.

Thanks and regards
Ashok

Hi,
Best options Marantz CD 5001 for 15K and 5001 OSE at 16.5K both grey mkt rates. If in mumbai at sound out, heera panna,tardeo.Else try the new budget Nad at about the budget u mention. The pioneer DVD will be good for movies not really for music or another option if u must have a dvd which serves as ur cdp too buy marantz DV 4001 for 10K from the same place.
Regards

Thanks Dinyaar for the response. For Marantz, I have read about issues faced with reliability. I have read great reviews about it, but just that I am not certain if the servicing will be good if I run into trouble.

thanks,
Ashok

Hi,
I have heard of no QC issues with marantz. Am sure they do blow but no more or less than any of the other brands in the range. In fact since the brand is on a resurgence its a great bang for the buck. Obviously if u buy from the grey mkt (40% of dealer list price in case of marantz) u do not get warranty. Look at it this way ashok even if u have to spend a bit if it misbehaves u will still be saving money!!!!!!! The warranty for these products is anyway just 1 year.
Finally its ur call but i would take my chances and buy from the grey mkt as long i am sure i am not getting used/refurbished stuff.
Regards

Hi Ashok

The Marantz CD 5001 is a very good buy for the money , and i am using it for the past 1 year in my office and had no issues , now that the prices have come down (15K with bill and warranty ) its really the best option.

regards

Get an Oppo disc player. It is within your budget and has been reviewed by Stereophile. Besides having outstanding DVD playback quality, it will beat most CD players under 30K in sound reproduction. Plays SACD too.

AVI sells it here but their markup is too much. You're better off buying it online and getting it through DHL. Plenty of online sellers.

HKflix and the chap in Singapore sell international too.

Re: Looking for a cdp for around Rs 15000

Thanks ! that was a quick reply. As usual the pricing at avi as usual remains unreasonable. But how much do they sell the DV-981 for? Is the best sounding of the lot??
