Hello,
This is my vintage Sony D-335 PCDP. This is widely regarded as one of the best, if not the best vintage Sony PCDPs.
It not only has one of the best "headphone-out" outputs in the industry, but also a stunningly good "line-out" output.
This Sony D-335 PCDP has been taken care of so well that it is absolutely mint, a rarity for this top-of-the-line 1994 PCDP. In fact, I'd go as far to say that this would be a 9.5/10 on the Audiogon scale, with the 0.5/10 compensating for a little dust collected over the years.
I'm including an AC adapter, an original Sony case, an excellent Sony PCDP bag, a line-out adapter, and some excellent vintage Sony earbuds.
Keep in mind that this retailed for $350 in 1994.
Thanks,
Leon

Some of it is going to depend, though, on whether you like the sort of base sound of DAPs, as un-EQ'd the good ones more or less sound very similar to one another, with some of the older iPod units being alleged by some to be the best. If you're unhappy with that sort of tonality (as is the case for myself), EQ features and quality will play a part in this comparison as well. I have a D-NE10 that I use occasionally which shares its sound with what you're considering, more or less. I think it's a pretty decent player, though I like what I can get out of some of the iRiver DAPs a bit better in terms of sound. However, I might give the nod to something like the D-335 over both of them...but it's harder to find and was made in 1994.
