My previous request for info on the Cerwin-Vega SW12B subwoofer
received such an overwhelming number of responses :-) that I've
decided to repeat the request (consider it done), and also ask
for opinions on the Hitachi DA-1000 CD player.

This one seems to have been out on the market for quite a while,
since I remember list prices in the $900 range when it first
appeared.  One of the local "goodie" shops is now selling it
for $399, and I was wondering how it compared to, say, the
SLP 8 that I've seen priced at the same level in postings within
this group.  Having auditioned this unit informally, I think I
can live with it, and it does look nice ("Look, Martha!  We got
us another live one..." :-).  Seriously, though...  is there
something considerably better in a CD player in this price range,
or should I go for it?

Thanks in advance.
