		I'm currently building a new system and searching for a CD player with a maximum budget of $2500. When I scanned through the Nov. issue and spotted the CDP-8 review, I dove right in.
Having been impressed by a few NuForce products, and a longtime fan of Wes my interest level was high. Then we hit the wall. A $1500 CD player powered by a wall wart. Really? Gimme a break. Hows about a few dozen AA batteries or perhaps a hand crank?
I really don't know what they were thinking, but the CDP-8 is off my list.

I am incredibly blessed to have been able to be one of the ones taking JD's Place in the Stamps, if only for a short while.
RIP JD

Oh, how I love Rollins, and Rollins era Black Flag is the business.
It's an older version (early/mid '90s) so it has an AudioQuest-sourced tonearm. I bought a Grado 8MZ at the same time but both have had relatively little play over the years. Fairly moderate use the first few years and then virtually no use for the last 10 years for both. Hoping to get back to vinyl in a bigger way soon however.
