Denon DCD-600NE, just might be your first (or last) CD player

Even if you never owned a single CD in your life, this might be a great time to get your first CD player. I find really good CDs on the street, and $1 a piece in thrift stores. Cheap CDs are plentiful. Or you're looking to replace an aging 'player the DCD-600NE might be just the ticket. It's $299.

Like many guys out there, I still buy and make CD's to this day. With the availability of streaming which could only be dreamed of decades ago is to me an extra great music source, not a replacement. I still love that physical feel of owning a physical medium and I feel my fellow vinyl lovers out there, it's yours forever to hold and own. I've tried hard to hold on to D.A.T and Mini-disc (still got 'em) but Tascam did saved me with their high-capacity memory card digital recorders that gave me back everything that I loved about the Mini-disc, minus the problems.✌️

[@masonb9788]

I find that after hours, weeks and even years of listening to streaming and MP3's, CD's sound pretty sweet to my ears, it almost reminds me of the 80's when they were "new" and novel.

Thanks Steve! My 1986 DCD 1500 recently decided it wouldn’t play a few of my CDs. Took it apart, cleaned as best I could and the issue continues. I bought a DCD-600NE 2 weeks ago. Much better sound, as one might expect. Anyway, your comments about the simplicity of this unit caught my ear. It has the optical out, so I might try an outboard DAC...The remote is enormous !

[@supersonicboy75]

I’ve just given up on Roon and streaming and gone back to CDs. Absolutely loving them and about to order 90 and would love a new CD player. That’s me for life.

That Denon looks like a cool player though, cuz I’m not too sure how much longer my JVC CD player from ‘91 is gonna work. Totally off topic, I never mention your shirts cuz it’s got nothing to do with audio or what you’re talking about, but that one is absolutely beautiful! Wow, man!

My first CD player was (is) a Denon DCD-1520, purchased in 1988. I still use it on my "upstairs" system. It only had one mechanical problem with the drawer motor many years ago. Denon issued an optional EC for a customer cost of about $50.00. Still a very reliable and nice sounding unit for its age.

I decided to upgrade my 1980s home stereo, and on the advice of Steve and others decided to buy the Denon DCD-600N and a Schiit Modi 3 DAC. A DAC is new territory for me. So much for the value of research! The Denon's direct analog output sounds somewhat better than when using a Schiit DAC.

There is no doubt how good the Denon CD players are. I still have and use weekly, my Denon DCD-1500 I bought back in the1980’s and it still works flawlessly, and sounds great. A stereo magazine review of this unit back then stated, “The creators of the DCD-1500 should be honored in public!” I still agree. I need to replace the “newer” Phillips CD changer in another home system, and have decided to let my wife get me the Onkyo DXC 390, 6 disc changer for Christmas.

[@HiFiInsider]

@Steve, where is a good place to sell CDs?

[@tlhuffman]

Steve, essentially the only thing you say about the performance of this Denon CD player is that "it is very functional, it is very basic" and "it is a "fine place to start." This could be said about almost any budget CD player. I guess I am wondering why you chose this piece of gear to review when you had so little to say about it.

[@playbackvintagehifihunter9669]

Tom Huffman yes yes yes. I’m glad I’m not the only viewer who is sceptical of these reviewers.

[@blahblah-sz6ew]

Unfortunately, this is a common theme in his videos. They often tend to be vague and lacking in detail. And you're right..."functional"..."basic"..."fine place to start" -- that could be said about ANY CD player. "When you hit PLAY, it plays"..."when you hit STOP, it stops". Yeah...got it. How about details about the sound quality, the functionality, how the whole "pure direct" thing works. I understand that when "pure direct" is selected, it deactivates the digital outputs and the display. However, when I disengage "pure direct", I still don't see the display on the CD player. This is stuff people need to know.

[@JoePalau]

I learn about gear that is out there from YT. I choose my price point and make an investment decision only after attempting to audition the equipment I am choosing. The Big Problem is finding dealers who carry the gear I want to hear. Not for nothing, I lean heavily toward legacy gear not only for bang for the buck but b/c I have heard this or that audio product once before over the years. So, I confess most YT reviews are of little informational value for me. Ditto for print reviews. Most. Some speak to my listening preferences - I like big, clearly define sound stages that make me feel I’m in a concert hall or an opera house sitting in high priced orchestra seats at eye level with the performers. Then, I am inclined to listen up and take note. Doesn’t stop me from listening to or reading reviews. It just there is little informational value in them. I guess I’m afraid of missing out on something in the market. That keeps me listening... :)

[@tomsanger5548]

Bought mine from Goodwill with remote for 10 bucks and probably sounds as good as the Denon. If you see a CD player at Goodwill with a remote taped to it the previous owner is probably trying to tell you it's a working one.

Hello ! --- Does Cassette Tape Player still exist ? --- If yes, witch one should I buy ? --- Thanks !

[@martytoo]

I'm curious if the DAC in the PMA-600NE would have improved the output from this CD player. With so much being written about DAC technology improving sound I'm wondering if you could hook them up together and compare the sound with and without the DAC built into the amp. Also compare to other inexpensive DACs. This is an issue as the DAC in the amp might make it even more of a bargain than it already seems to be.

[@musiconvinylisbetter.1449]

The dac in the cd-player is a little better. I don't think that you will notice any differens.

[@jimshaw899]

I (sort of) took your advice on the Denon amp (399) you refer to. Hooked it to the Klipsch 600M's (439 on sale) which you and Sean and Dorko talked me into -- and an existing Monoprice ($300) powered sub. I think that will satisfy me for awhile (with an 8 year old AT120 ($250) record-rotator with Grado high output MC cartridge ($199 on sale)). Currently, CD's play on a DVD player (free) with coax to the Denon. I can see this CD machine ($299) in the future when the DVD player needs replacement. I'm more into listening to serious music than remortgaging the house to impress people ($0.10 ears) who don't know what I'm listening to. But, I digress. In a space of 1000 sq. ft., half of it with 17' ceilings, I cannot anticipate hearing anything louder there. The Klipsch's and the sub are loafing; the amp is not. But, twice the 50 watts per channel would only yield 3 dB more loudness (nature's diminishing returns). On jazz, it sounds very much like what I remember, visiting the Village Vanguard and the Blue Note. I find it's far better (for me) to be listening for a competent horn player, or a well played piano, or a brilliant acoustic instrument improvisation, than searching for some tiny discrepancy in my music player. Thanks for the advice. -Just one man's view, a musiphile.

[@mikrophonie5633]

It's an easy choice nowadays. Around $4 on average for good used CD titles, or $30 or more for new vinyl, or $25 for overpriced used vinyl, both of which (new and used) can be full of pops and clicks. Or you can rent air (streaming).

[@1mctous]

Most VG+ LP's on Discogs sell for $4-5 each. Unless it's a rare title, $25 is way overpriced.

[@lindacopping]

Steve what do you think about Onkyo C-7030 Single-Disc CD Player?

[@VK4LL]

Thanks for all your insights and interesting presentations. You mention that this cd player can be used as a transport by means of the optical output. I wonder if that is correct as I understand it, a transport does not have a DAC built in, but relies on an external DAC. The specs on this Denon mention a DAC IC PCM5142, Burr Brown (192kHz/32-Bit). But my question is more on which format/ resolution is outputted to the optic. Is it always 16bit/44kHz regardless of the resolution of the recording/ file on the media? And is the max capabilities of the internal DAC only used to convert to the analog outputs? I have been trying to get my head around this issue and are still looking for a good CD player. I have a LYNGDORF Tdai1120 as my main amp. Did you do a review on this amp? Or is class D's not your cup of tea? Enjoy your videos.

[@SteveGuttenbergAudiophiliac]

Thanks for watching! When you use the optical output of any CD player it is then functioning as a transport. You are essentially bypassing the CD players internal digital converter. The resolution of all CD players is the same, limited by the resolution of the CD itself, 16 bit, 44 one sampling rate. Of course many players and digital converter‘s poop sample from there, but the native resolution of the CD format is always 16 bit, 44.1. I hope that helps.

[@ericelliott227]

Yup, still have plenty of CDs here as well and still buy them (not to mention record to them as well on occasion). I don't have 3000 CDs, but I am very near 1000. I am particular about what I purchase on CD format (never classic rock and the like, but newish music, especially electronic or ambient and classical as well as jazz are good enough for me on CD. Plus there are some special made CDs as well. Anyway, I did not know Denon was still putting out CD players these days. Another good suggestion is Marantz, they have the CD5005 at $399 MSRP, which means $299 on the store shelf or make that, Amazon as stores are dying thanks to the wretched internet. There is also the CD6006 for $100 which just offers USB playback if you want to pay $100 more for that. While Marantz and Denon are part of the same parent company and likely made in the same factory, the Marantz CD players do have an edge on the Denons. For one, they are surprisingly heavy due to a big ol' tordial transformer in them with a power cord to match. They offer a tiny bit more connectivity in back, but unfortunately, they share the exact "drive you crazy" remote. Still, a very solid player.
