I had previous experience with a Yamaha CD player from 1987, so I trust the brand. But my old CD player finally gave up the ghost after 30 years of service...so, it was time to shop for a quality replacement. First of all, silverface was a must for me, as this is where vintage stereo purists dwell. I had it boiled down to either a Marantz or another new Yamaha. I decided to go with Yamaha once again. This unit I believe is 2nd from top of the line, and the reviews I read were all thumbs up. So I clicked and ordered, and soon enough, I plugged my new CD-S2100 into my vintage Marantz 2245 receiver, then sat back and listened to the results emerging in jaw-dropping trueness and hair raising clarity thru my Klipsch Chorus II speakers. I couldn't be happier! Of course, you get a remote control with the new Yamaha. So I do have a modern addition to my vintage stereo system, which is only 2/3rds vintage now. Sorry, vinyl purists, I prefer the clarity and pureness of a CD over vinyl. YMMV. Thanks Yamaha for helping my enjoy music as much as I do. It is a very important ingredient in my quality of life.Read full review

Plays all cd formats well, my only point to complain about is no headphone jack.

Granted I haven't listened to this thing to much yet it's still a really good sounding CD-Player, I have it paired with the Yamaha S2100SL Amp and it's a super combo, which unfortunately needs me to spend some more on my speakers, I think I can get much more out of it. The Monitor Audio I have is way to little challenge for this setup. So basically it's to early for a review, but rest assured it is a really good CD-Player, I do hear details in my music that I haven't heard before, the control of the full sound specter is amazing, it breathe new life to your listening room for sure.
