Shengya CD-18CS Tube CD Player - MSRP US$900.00

This model has been discontinued by the manufacturer.

"The CD-18CS offers tube sound in spades, with a golden midrange that can take the compressed edge off of all but the worst offenders, such as Rush’s Vapor Trails. It isn’t the most detailed player at the top end, but it has an easy-going personality that makes for fatigue-free listening, hour after hour." - Todd Whitesel
