Not sure if this is the right board, apologies if it isn't. I'm looking for some sleeves for my growing CD collection, for everything that is anything but a standard replaceable jewel-case. Regular 4-6 panel digipaks are of course the main culprit, but there are other larger, multi-disc digipaks and digibooks that are a lot thicker in my collection which I'd need something else for. The Blade Runner, Emperor and the two Celtic Frost CDs in the pic below are what I'm talking about; I'd also like to sleeve anything with a slipcase as well. Basically if it's cardboard on the outside, I want to protect it. Does anybody have experience with any sleeves / bags which they could point me to?

Item: Esoteric K-03 Location: Perth WA Price: 7,000 Item Condition: Excellent Reason for selling: Change of direction Payment Method: Pickup - Cash, Paypal, COD Only Extra Info: After much internal soul-searching I have decided to put my Esoteric K-03 up for sale. I bought it as a demo model from Krispy Audio in Nov 2013 and used it moderately but a few years ago I gradually discovered that streaming fits better with my life style. So instead of letting the K-03 remain under-used in the cabinet I have decided to let it go to a good home. Its sound quality is absolutely brilliant and for reviews I gladly refer to the various audiophile websites. The K-03 is in excellent condition, not a tick or scratch anywhere. The pictures may not do it justice but I didn't want to lift this solid, heavy brother out of the cabinet just for a few pictures and then put it back. It's been carefully kept in a pet/child/smoke-free environment. The K-03 comes with original box, manual and remote control. Price excludes shipping. I'll be happy to demo to interested buyers.

Hi all, I'm looking for a good, affordable option for a CD player for my home stereo (probably up to $100 max at this point). I would love something that would hold a few CD's (to keep my wife happy, so she has minimal interaction with everything!) However a single disc player would be fine too. Any suggestions on where to go, what to look for? Or anything for sale here? Thanks in advance.

I bought a second hand Yamaha CD-N301 Natural sound CD player to replace my old faithful Yamaha carousel aka, anchor weight (which has just died) that I used upstairs. While most of today's purchases were analog in nature, this unit sounds pretty good for the money, so why not a digital thread along the lines of, dare I say, analogous to the ever popular What have you bought today? for people to post their digital purchases, such as CDs, FLAC, CD players etc? [or is that just rhetorical?]. While I have sort of checked to see if such a thread existed, I couldn't find on as such. I am sure admin etal. will correct/move/delete this if this is incorrect. PS the CD was in the tray when I connected it up to the system.

Couldn’t miss box of cds, see pic below, on the djb listening room floor. Must be a thousand in there. Snuggled next to vinyl Cassandra. No, not a deceased estate acquisition this time - but I do understand source was no longer able to afford to live in Melb. He’s lucky-dipping the audio experience: hand grabs whatever deep within the box, plays a track & tosses it into a keep pile or toss pile. Latter pile was growing fast & I’d bet will soon be generally available.

Item: Cambridge Azur 740C upsampling CD player with remote Item condition: excellent Price: $480 + shipping cost Location: Brisbane Reason for selling: Not using it Payment method: Pick Up Cash, COD, Bank deposit Extra info: Cambridge Azur 740C upsampling CD player - RRP $1,299.95 - Model: 740C - Colour: Black The 740C is the latest in Cambridge Audio`s Azur series of CD players. Using the upsampling technology present in the top-of-the-range 840C barnstormer, now married to dual Wolfson WM8740 24-bit DACs with a newly developed Bessel implementation of our proprietary virtual earth balanced filtering, the 740C is set to rejuvenate the mid price sector. The 740C incorporates the same 32-bit DSP as the 840C and upsamples to full 24-bit 384 kHz. Key to the abilities of the 740C is ATF (Adaptive Time Filtering) an upsampling process developed in conjunction with Anagram Technologies of Switzerland. This system intelligently interpolates 16-bit/44.1 kHz CD (or other) audio data to 24-bit/384 kHz through the use of a 32-bit Analog Devices Black Fin DSP (Digital Signal Processor) for the very best sound quality. The ATF system applies sophisticated polynomial curve fitting interpolation and incorporates a time domain model which allows data buffering and re-clocking. This almost completely eradicates digital jitter. Features: Adaptive Time Filtering (ATF) asynchronous upsampling technology converting 16-bit 44.1 kHz CD data to 24-bit 384 kHz Two Wolfson WM8740 DACs in dual differential configuration separate DACs for left and right channels New virtual earth balanced Bessel anti-aliasing filters with minimum phase and constant group delay IR emitter and Control Bus In/Out for easy custom installation Navigator style Azur remote which also controls:o iPod track skip and volume functionso Azur amplifiers o Cambridge Audio`s Incognito keypads o Discrete commands for custom install use Solid aluminium front panel plus an ultra rigid, acoustically dampened chassis for extremely low distortion

Item: Vitus Audio RCD100 Location: Blackheath NSW Price: $7900 now $7200 Item Condition: perfect Reason for selling: I really want this sold, at this point to fund other hobbies. I believe this is the cheapest this unit has ever been offered on Stereonet, and this is also almost certainly the lowest hours used, in commensurate condition. A world class DAC, with a matching CD player thrown in for free. A number of reasons have led me to the decision to part with my stereo, but ultimately work has meant I am simply not listening to a beautiful stereo in a big house that I am never in. So I am downsizing, and with it selling a stereo that needs room to breathe. This is an opportunity to pick up some mint condition items that have very low hours on them. Payment Method: Pickup - Cash, Paypal, COD Only Extra Info: this unit was bought from the Australian importer as New in 2014, and has spent over half it’s life in its original box hence the sale. It is literally perfect condition with less than 500 hours clocked. It was paired with the matching RI100 and a pair of Sasha’s, both already sold. This item would be ideal for a new buyer. I can’t find a fault with it. No scratches, marks, or fading. It sounds as good as the reviews say, and retailed new for $18,000, representing a saving of over $10,000 as I would like it to sell promptly. Pictures:

Item: Audiolab 8200 CDQ Location: NE Melb 'burbs Price: $850 ... now dropped 10% to $750 ....... now dropped to $680 .... including SNA donation – shipping costs covered by purchaser Item Condition: Used, very good to excellent condition Reason for selling: Upgraded, and this now needs a home where it will be used Payment Method: Pickup - Cash, Paypal, COD Only Extra Info: This is a great bit of kit. A quality CD player, a fine DAC with numerous digital inputs, as well as analogue inputs enabling the unit to run as pre-amp. A damn handy machine for the price, especially with balanced outputs. If you don't believe me, then read some reviews ..... https://www.whathifi.com/audiolab/8200cdq/review https://hometheaterhifi.com/reviews/audio-player/cd-players/audiolab-8200cdq-dac-for-audiophiles/ http://www.hifi-review.com/150587-audiolab-8200cdq.html I purchased this via SNA about 6 months ago from @Snoopy8 when I re-entered the world of my audio obsession. This was first bit of new gear to get me started, but I quickly found that I moved to streaming digital files rather than playing the actual CD - I really didn't anticipate that. But as a result, this unit didn’t get used anywhere near enough. It really needs to go someone who will use it, rather than sitting around in its box. The only marks that I can see on it (apart from the fingerprints), are 1 small scratch on the upper right of the faceplate, and 3 tiniest of nicks in the top rim of faceplate. .... I'd frankly never noticed them, until right now ! It comes in its original box with manual, remote & cable. I’d prefer local pick up for convenience (NE Melb ‘burbs), but it can be shipped at purchasers cost. In the interest of full disclosure, the unit has recently been serviced by Audiolab service techs and the firmware has been upgraded. Since its return, I’ve opened the box & checked it. The photos don't really do it justice .... happy to answer any questions Pictures:
