What can you tell us about the cd player? I am very interested in this kit. What does it "sound" like? How robust are the mechanicals? Whatever information you have would be beneficial.
Thanks
Here is the spec. of this CD player Kithttp://www.vkmusic.ca/TU-884CD.htm
There's a lot to say about this CD kit. This is not it's first generation of this kit, it's been around and has been modified to this stage on a regular basis. I am using Audio Research CD 3, of course the CD 3 is better than this one but you only pay less than 10% of the CD3. You will get at least 80% of the CD 3. Except, the music is very dynamic music, normal listening is not substantial for regular evening listening.
IT is a very popular kit in Japan.You will not be disappointed.
Thanks
