    There has been quite a discussion recently about what's important in a
CD player.  Some believe sampling rate, some say type of filtering, etc...
I make no claim as to which features one should look for in a player, but
I thought the net may be interrested in a summary of CD features.  My
information is by no means complete, in particular, I can find little
information about phase linearity in CD players.  Sony publishes this
value in their literature but few other do.  At any rate, here is a list
of several players and SOME of the inner features of the players:

    This list neglects many players as I got tired of typing the stuff
in.  All prices are with out remote controls IF the remote is OPTIONAL.
Additionally, all prices are LIST prices and may be much lower through
mail order or at discount retailers.  My apologies for any inaccuracies
in this list....
