| 'A WARM MUSICAL PLAYER' | | Strengths:
Musical and easy going on the ear without loosing dynamics and verve[Update 14/10/07] A warm and cosy sound with a musical, toe-tapping sound. Pretty good dynamics for the price. Responds well to cable upgrades | | Weaknesses:
Needs an upgraded mains lead to give its best[Update 14/10/07] Having auditioned classier players since purchase the sound is slightly lacking in detail and the bass lacking definition. | | Overall:
Highly recommended before you pay out serious money, but do try a mains lead upgrade - it puts in the same league as a player twice the price![Update 14/10/07] Still a great under £500 player |
