Looking for a somewhat decent budget CD player. I am not expecting very good sound quality, just average for the price range. A CDP with good build quality would be ideal.

The NAD's just don't impress me that much.

The only ones I can find in the ~350$ price range that seem halfway decent are the:
Marantz 5001
Cambridge Audio 340C

I had a chance of seeing the 340C in person. No initial complaints about it. The marantz seems to be recommended, but it is not on display.

Any suggestions?
Thanks so much!



I would choose the Cambridge from those two, but you may want to price Rega Planet 2000's on Audiogon as well, now that the Apollo is out, you may find one in your price range. I have owned many expensive players and the Regas have always been outstanding bargains.
