Although I am not new to the world of high end headphones, I know little about high end or relatively high end sources. I will have a DT 880 and a HA-1 Mk II on the way to my house soon, but it appears the missing link will be my source. In the meantime i run off of a Sony CD changer, but this will not do for much longer. What could you recommend as a good source for $300 or less. I know the selections must be limited at this price level, but I am merely a poor college student.

So I need something that will sound better than my Sony but won't break the bank. Thanks a lot guys.

$300 = NAD 521i

Used Nad C 541 on Agon. Better grab it quick.

People have been reporting that the NAD is bright.

Good deal on that 541.

How many people think that the NAD cdps are bright? Are they so much so that some warm interconnects couldn't fix it?
