| If you can stand the Amstrad reject styling then get a MARANTZ CD65IISE

85.3 | Thanks so far... | KEITH::EDMUNDS | $ no !fm2r, no comment | Mon May 15 1989 22:44 | 5 |
| Yes, I read that it was good, but the only magazine I could find that
listed features said it did not have A/B repeat, which I must have. Can
anyone confirm / deny this?

85.4 | CD 270 ??? | MALLET::JEFFERY | The wind just kind of blew me here. | Tue May 16 1989 02:16 | 11 |
| I hear that Denon are pretty good, although I've only heard the
expensive one (See Bristol HiFi Show report).
Not had any complaints with the Phillips CD-270 (I think it is 270),
and that costs about 250 quid. Only real complaint is that the Step
styling is unattractive, and that it would definitely look wrong
if you had an AIWA cassette deck as well!
Cheers.
Mark.

I have The MARANTZ CD65. It is worth having. Sound is good. It
does have a repeat option (Not sure about A/B repeat as .5). Looks
good. Don't know wheather this is o any use but it say's that it
has a Z-Filter with 16 Bit Twin DAC Full Floating Mechanism.
Costs about �200-250
Hope this helps

85.7 | CD65MkII Special Edition! | SEDOAS::KORMAN | | Tue May 16 1989 16:07 | 10 |
| Yes, The Marantz CD62MkII *SE* (Special Edition) has consistently
scored higher than other machines in its price group in all the
reviews. It costs �299.xx, as opposed to the �250 for the standard
CD65MkII. The problem you will have is getting one!
Last time I enquired I was quoted 3/4 months!
If you find one, please let me know where...cos I want one too!

| A-B repeat enables you to repeat any given section of a track. Thanks
for all the replies, but it does not look as if the Marantz has A-B...

85.9 | Denon DCD-810? | AYOU30::PAULC | Me and you against the world | Thu May 18 1989 14:51 | 8 |
| I've got a Denon DCD-810, cost �249.95. It has remote control, is
programmable, and has repeat A-B. It received pretty good reviews
when it came out. It's my first CD player so I can't really compare
the sound quality to any other player, but it sounds OK to me.
Just one thing - it seems quite noisy when it's searching for tracks;
is this common?

| How noisy? If it sounds like you've got an RD54 in there then take it
back for a repair. My Technics SLP350 is just about silent.

85.11 | marantz cd65 best buy | SEDCAS::FSOR_ADMIN | | Wed Sep 06 1989 18:27 | 10 |
| i had a cd104 which packed up and was replaced by a cd473 which
also packed up. after some looking i got hold of a MARANTZ CD65iiSE
it was well worth the wait. I would recommend this chap for <300
pounds.
it does have an A/B facility you can set up any time to start
and stop playing within a tract or the whole CD. I have not tried
it out though .

85.12 | I wonder why? | IOSG::LEVY | QA Bloodhound | Thu Sep 07 1989 15:28 | 4 |
| You still trust the reliability of Phillips/Marantz after
two machines packing up?

85.13 | reliability ???? | SEDCAS::FSOR_ADMIN | | Fri Sep 08 1989 15:25 | 11 |
| Having taken out a 5 yr gt on both I have only paid 240 pound for
the cds and 5yr gt so far........ if this one works for 5 yrs I
will have had 9yrs of CDing 24 quid a year can't be bad.
I must admit, its a surprise each time i turn the thing on to
see it work though. ( This is the 2nd marantz !!!!!!!!)
DO NOT BUY A CD WITHOUT THE % YR GT.

85.14 | MARANTZ CD50SE any opinions ? | PEKING::TAYLORG | Bodybuilders do it till it hurts | Mon Dec 18 1989 13:38 | 9 |
| Any comments of the Marantz CD50SE (The replacement for the CD65IISE.
I have a 4 year old JVC XL-V220 CD player that is miss tracking
on the first track of all 20 odd CD's that I have.
The HiFi mags rave about this player it has won the best CD player
under �400.
What about availability ?
