Yes, as I said over on the other thread, CD is my most used choice. Have a NAD C521BEE CD player, which cost me nothing as it was faulty, I fixed it with a part for £9, effectively the whole CD motor and laser assembly, it's a Sony part. I also have an…

foxfeeder, sadly on the subject of SACD I think we are in agreement. A real shame as a format it had great potential.

(Quote from Wayne)

I don't really know about the technical stuff. All I can say is that the detail on the SACD's is excellent on my stereo , much more detail than the previous releases. I generally don't listen much to the surround mixes , my hi fi is…

At the moment, I listen to music almost exclusively over iPod. I use either earphones or a Bose amplifier. That is not particularly the best of all solutions, but I have reached a point, where I stopped buying music in physical formats but only…

From my perspective: CD is the go to format for stereo. Vinyl doesn't compare, can't see why anyone thinks it does. MP3 is Ok for portability (Though Sony's Atrac was far superior, with better sound and gapless tracks) but downloads are, to me, inferior…
