Maybe there's a lesson to be learned here.Д«ut it's a nice player, mine is quiet when playing, could be quieter when loading, but that's not a big deal for me, doesn't skip cds, and looks good to me and was quite cheap. I was quite excited with all the raving reviews on amazon how it was night and day difference compared to old BOTL cd players. It does sound quieter in the background though and bass is maybe a tad tighter.

I have to admit though, I was a bit disappointed that it didn't sound that much better than my old Pioneer PD-4550 (which more than likely was a BOTL model back in the day). I like it, but i haven't heard real high-end players.
