Vincent Audio C-60 CD player

With the world moving on to the MP3 format for quite a enlarged date already, it makes us wonder who would want to fork out $4,695 for the Vincent Audio C-60 CD player. Well, that is no ordinary CD player as you can tell by its price tag, since it comes with both vacuum and solid-state output stages. The latter can be changed through a remote control, providing the vacuum tune sound which some audiophiles are particularly fond of. The top-loading CD tray will not skip a individual bit during playback, while balanced XLR output, unbalanced RCA, coaxial optical out and digital outputs rounds off the list of specifications.
