- I use the ROTEL 855 CD player mostly for headphone listening,
- both because i don't want to be bothered and my speakers are
- not great ones. But because the Rotel DOESN'T have a headphone
- out, i use the headphone jack of my Sherwood receiver. The
- ridiculous setting was from my naive idea to get a high-end
- sound without being burned out. When my old amp(bought cheap
- used) broke down, i bought that Sherwood receiver, thinking
- that i mostly use headphones anyway, why push myself so hard
- to buy expensive amps? But i recently realized that i am not
- getting the real sound from the Rotel through the Sherwood's
- headphone jack either. So I either upgrade my system around
- the Rotel, OR let the Rotel go and get a reasonable CD player
- which has a good headphone out, better than Sherwood's of course.
- I've decided NOT to go the former. Have to resist it!
-
- I guess i could ask $260, right? But i'll seriously consider
- offers around $240. I'll take care of shipping. Bought around August
- 1991. Still under 5 year Warranty. With the original package.
-
- Also, i would appreciate any suggestions on CD players around
- $300. Remember i use the headphone output very often.
-
- Thanks!
