NAD c541 cd player score

[Juniperlater]

Went to a new thrift store today. It was mostly garbage VCRs and then there was an NAD c541 cd player for the hefty sum of $14.99. What a steal! It even has HDCD capabilities (so does my Oppo).

How could I turn it down?

That is an AMAZING deal! Very sweet sounding cd player. You are gonna enjoy it.

I visit our two local Goodwill stores regularly, my HPM's are the only audio gear I've found yet.

One of the stores even has my phone number and has promised me first dibs at anything that plays music, but told me they rarely get anything in anymore :tears:

I bet that NAD sounds good :thmbsp:

I'll bet it sounds good too, in fact I have one myself....paid way more than $15
though!

24 hours later

24 hours later I have to say that it is nice to have an NAD component back in my system. I really like this CD player. The Oppo I have is what I would consider warmer, but the NAD is cleaner sounding. Hard to explain these things, but I am really liking it. That little HDCD light is pretty neat too.

I was going to ask you to compare it to the Oppo, as I am strongly considering the 980H myself... but you already did :thmbsp:

 

[Juniperlater]

I am not sure which is better. I am listening now. I am leaning NAD, but it could just be the novelty of it. I LOVE the Oppo. I am a huge Oppo defender. I had the 971HD - loved it. I sold it for more than I paid for the 980H.

 

[dmusgrave]

I'm gonna hit that Powerball one day and I'll have one of EVERYTHING, old and new... and I can quit agonizing over decisions

 

[Juniperlater]

If you hit the powerball, you are going to buy an Oppo? Here's to dreaming big!

 

[dmusgrave]

Man if I hit the Powerball I'm gonna buy all of them, and let my ears sort them out :lmao:
