ricky,

mas maganda nga yan sa tube amp eh. i've tried that using SS and tube amp and all i can say is that the NAD C542 excels more if you pair it with tube amps.

Uy! Thanks audioslave. Actually dalawa kami ng ka-officemate ko na kumuha last week. At bago ko makalimutan, maraming salamat sa inyo. Honestly, you're reviews/comments here made me check this unit out. Plus, a friend (also a NAD cd player owner) advised me that the DAC of NAD is very good.

This is my first dedicated CD player. Before this, i'm using my Pioneer 676a dvd player which is barely 1-month old (it retired my 4-yr old Philips dvd player). When I jumped from Philips 732k to Pioneer 676a, nagandahan na ko sa audio but with NAD, forget it. Out of the box, you can already hear the diffference (read as improvement). Nag-blind test pa nga kami ni esmi, NAD yung nagustuhan niya (although hindi niya nagustuhan yung presyo

)

Cheers!!!

I've got a NAD C542. Great value!

Just got from a collegue an old Meridian 200T transport and Monarchy 22B DAC. The DAC sounds good but was not impress with the Meridian. I just recently upgraded the caps, diodes and installed a DIY clock (see my other thread) on both of them and now I could say that I'm now very happy with the combo.

This is similar to USher CD-100, just change the OP-Amp to AD8066 instant upgrade na. OP amp is already socketed no need for soldering

Abybody tried Yamaha DVD-S550? It has capability of CD output Upsampling (Approx. 176khz) for the Analog output. I'm thingking it might be a good CD player too.
