C. Lines: 16 I just read the Audio Magazine review of the new sony CDP 605 CD player. This unit seems to combine everything that anyone could want. It can access any portion of the disk in less than 1 second and is programmable for up to 99 different selections. It has remote control and every other convenience feature that I can think of. On the audio side it has the flattest frequency response that I (and Audio Mag) have ever seen. It has among the lowest distortion and greatest channel separation also. There is almost no phase shift and the square waves looked squarer than any others. It was implied that Sony uses separate D to A electronics for each channel. This all seems too good to be true (except for the $1300 price). This machine combines great convenience with the best sound around. Does anyone out there in net land know any reason not to start saving my pennies for this new toy?
