Hi,
I searched the forum a lot. There is nothing starting below a Marantz or a CA. Hence, this thread.
My question: We are having a host of DVD players in the Indian market place - Philips, Sony, Samsung, LG, Onida, T Series, and then .. Pioneer, Panasonic. You name it and you get it. Price? The range is from 1.5K to 8-10K. Are we having similar options when it comes to CDP? Can someone guide me to a basic CDP that just plays audio CDs and gives decent quality (better than any of the abovementioned DVD players, else I can opt for a DVD player instead)? My budget is around 4-7K.
I know Marantz and CA are of the range 12-18K but I am exploring if there is a CDP product base similar to the enormous DVD range that we currently see all around.
Another question: Does pioneer DVD player - DVD220 (or DVD420) provide good CD playback? Do not compare with Marantz but atleast if it does better than other DVD players in the market, then it can serve me as a multipurpose audio (and video) device. Please comment on the audio quality.
