for sale due to change in circumstances my 6 weeks old talk thunder 6 cd player , this is the long awaited replacment for the thunder 3.1b which at time of release was regarded as one of the best players available at any price ! the thunder 6 is a big jump up in performance from the 3.1b and compares with much costlier players i have heard , amazingly grain free mid range and projects a 3d soundstage which comes very close to a hi end turntable set up ! the player has just recently been launched by noteworthy audio and its current rrp is 3k but which is due to increase in the summer of 2010 the player is been offered at half that so a huge bargain to be had , other than a small mark on one of the control buttons it can be discribed " as new " asking 1500 - happy to consider cheaper part ex !
