I also have 2 of those Magnavox CDB-650. I also have an ADCOM GCD-575, which is 1541 based. For their shortcomings on imaging, soundstaging, and depth, there is such little digititis on these. However, my Scott Nixon designed Anodyne adapt tube dac is in a different league. Does everyting the phlips players can, but gives you soundstage, imaging,etc.

Funny, the "old" transports from that era track better than most new cd players. CDr's, scratched disc, etc. Doesn't matter, those Magnavox decks play every disc I throw at them (it is my understanding that the lasers were stronger and were made with glass versus plastic.)
