Hello,
As a late christmas gift I can get anything within the 100-250 dollar price range. Since I don't really have a source right now ( I use my Zen and PC) I was looking into a home CD player. I have read and I understand that used cd players are much beter value for the $, but being a gift something new would be preferrable.
So, what new cd players in that price range would be worth considering?
BTW, if there's really nothing that great, I can wait and get something better. That's sort of a last resort type of thing though...
I unfortunately don't have an amp, although I will get one soon. So in the meantime I would prefer something with a headphone jack.
thanks, though. anyone else?

The OPPO 980 sounds very good for the price...

I agree that the Oppo is a good choice but without a headphone out jack, you'll need something else to go with it. Maybe the Tivoli, but I haven't read too much about this. The Marantz is a good choice if you can find one in your budget.
