- While looking for a system, I saw a Magnavox CDC 792 CD player. It
- looks to be exactly what I am looking for.......simple controls, sturdy
- construction and a reasonable price. Any comments from you wizards out there on
- this unit? I didn't get to hear it (it wasn't hooked up and the store was gonna
- close) so I may find out it isn't the CD player for me after I do hear it, but I
- would like comments on it.
-
- Also, I have heard quite a few people talking about the Advent speakers,
- and I saw a pair of Laureates today. I thought they sounded OK, but the paper
- speakers worry me.....won't the paper type wear out before the
- polypropelene (sp?) type will? I was also told that one sign of bad speaker
- design is when the woofer moves quite a bit a low/medium volume. I notice that
- these really did!....Should a woofer be "tight" in a good speaker?
-
- Thanks in advance for all help.
