Mp3 players, some good ones

Im looking for the best mp3 player i can get for 200....even if its at cost or bought refirbished or bought from ebay....the best for 200 bucks

Im looking at last years rockford fosgate RFX9300

and i just found this..its a blaupunkt (not as good as rockford but its cheaper) http://www.blaupunktusa.com/receiver...mp3000_mp3.asp

also post some other good cd players

what im really looking for i wish i could get would be: a good tuner, 24bit d/a converter, mp3 wma, 5v preamp outs, and i could care less about power or looks.

Avoid Blaupunkt.. the shop I work for carries them and they all run very hot and get finicky with burnt CD's or one's with painted back labels and such.

Panasonic, Clarion and Pioneer make some good units that can be found for under $200 online.

Check onlinecarstereo.com
thezeb.com
woofersetc.com
etronics.com

you can usually find a sale or deal on one of the units between those sites.

Or find one on one of those sites and go to sounddomain.com and take advantage of their price matching policy

honestly, you wont really be able to tell the difference between a lower bit dac on 90 percent of recordings and on even less stereos...

You should get a Pioneer 5500. If you have a little money get a Pioneer 8500
