Bought one of these as a replacement for an expired Marantz CD5400. I consider it an 'upgrade': the sound is far more detailed then the Marantz was, and when paired with the C315BEE amplifier, and Chord Crimson Plus interconnects, the sound is simply beautiful.
If you're thinking of getting one, don't hesitate! NAD proves once again to be the epitome of the phrase "Don't judge a book by it's cover."
This is a nice looking CD player. I just checked out NAD's website, and they've acknowledged the problem:
"A small number of NAD C515BEE were produced with a CD tray position switch that proved to be unreliable. All units in the serial number range were reworked with new switches. Unfortunately some units were sold before we realized the situation. Any customer experiencing problems will have their unit repaired free of charge. We apologize to anyone that has experienced this difficulty with their C515BEE." http://is.gd/2DEIA
