Hi !!!
The CD-S3 From Vincent Is A Great Player For All Music Styles ( Classic;Pop;Dance;Jazz;Blues... )
I Think It's The Best Under 800.-€
This High End Vincent Play's Better Than Any 2000.-€ Players !!!!!

The sound reproduction of the s3 adds nothing to the music. It is transparent and therefore very enjoyable.

Just got me a Vincent cd s-3. Very happy!
It plays beautifully. Very transparent!
Its a "low cost" Hi-End player! Its a budged
way in to the lower aspect of Hi-End... Beats
any other cdplayer I have heard compared to price!
-Recomended!

I had a demo of the s3 and estimated it's price to be more than twice what it actually is!
I shall purchase one when I can afford the matching amplifier.
Before I do, has anyone heard the cd s6 with it's matching amp?

The best matching is Vincent SA-T1/SP-T100 amplifier set. I bought this from a Hong Kong website called
www.cattylink.com
at a very low price. I'm very happy with that!
Cheers!

Hello everybody. I have the following audio system: Amp: Graaf GM 20 OTL - PreAmp: Graaf 13.5 B II - Sony XA50ES as transport and Wadia 26 as DAC - Sonus Faber Concert - Cables: Nordost SPM Reference and Red Dawn - Van Den Hul Revelation. I think is time to change the digital sources... Do you think the Vincent cd player's S3 or S6 is a good choice ? Best regards - Carlos - Portugal

I bought this CD Player from an agent of Vincent High End products in Singapore.
Recently, most of consumers still don't know about it ( I mean model CD S3), the reasons is it was produced in the non-English speaking country,you know, if a person they only reading English Hi Fi Magazines, he might got not chance to recovers this wonderful product!
This Vincent CD S3 can easily beats any the same price,twice or even more than twice of the selling price!

Vincent manufacturing.
Hi Guys,
Vincent is the export name for Sheng Ya, a top quality Chinese audio manufacturer. Since I live in China I have met many Chinese audio enthousiasts and Shang Ya is one of the best brands. It is not designed in Europe at all everything is done in China. you can look at heir website at
http://www.shengya-audio.com. There are other brands such as Korsun (OEM for Mark and Levinson although they would not admit that) and http://www.hdlt.com/ for Jungson which is probably the most expensive brand in China (and outside China as well). Opera is another great brand. They make superb tube amplifiers in Beijing. And no folks these are not dark halls where thousands of children are working but nice workshops with audio enthousiasts and excellent engineers working on top quality products. Everybody thinks that Chinese manufacturers can not make top products but if you know that many top brands buy their products here with OEM manufacturers and pretend that it is designed and made in Europe or Japan just to raise the price think twice.
Cheers,
Rens

Anonymous: Funny you would mention Shangling, which of course is a Chinese brand as well. It's sky high priced in the rest of the world, but import from China is very cheap, about 1/4th of the retail price in Europe, including shipping and insurance.

Rens Metaal: If you would visit this page again, you would not happen to know anything about Catty Link Research and Coemaudio in Hong Kong? They export ShengYa at very moderate prices, if they are legit (they most likely are) importing ShengYa-labeled products give you a big bang for the buck. For example two SP-991's and the SP-91 preamp including shipping and insurance for less than that one SP-991 cost in Europe.

Please, help me, although this forum is not for cd recorders. I want buy a audio cd recorder, because I don't like the sound of computer burned cd's. I want know of those two decks, what is the best at doing accurate cd copies (COPIES VIRTUALLY INDISTINGUISHABLE FROM THE SOURCE CD). I know that PIONEER has more smart features like FADE IN/FADE OUT, possibility of add post gaps if you desire, possibility of insert ID to skip tracks you don't want to listen, etc. However, although I like those features, I want know which do better cd copies and which is bettter at tracks access speed(from the first track to the last of a disc), and also which is more quiet during the read of a cd(internal mechanisms noises). Thanks.

I have the Philips and it is perfect but I haven't compared to any other one so hard to tell. Howerver it works very well. I use it to burn Cd's from records and it does it perfectly. Sound is as good as the source.

I can get the Kavent CDP's and amplifiers for cheap (over 30% discount), if we can gether together a group purchase. They are manufactured by ShengYa, but is re-engineered by kellsieavdesign.com, and therefore has a 120V power supply and better build quality. Take a look at their website, and let me if you are interested. Myself personally want to go with the CD-931 (equivalent to CD-S3) and S-22/P-2200 (equivalent to SA91/SP991).

Does any one have any experience with the Shengya S-10 cd player? I've been using a Pioneer Elite CLD-59 for a while and now that it seems to have stopped working, it's a good excuse to upgrade. I'm using a Yamaha DSP-A970 for amplifcation and MIT terminator series for cables and interconnects. Speakers are PSB Century 500i's (but will be replaced with Paradigm Monitor 9's in the near future). Any opinions on synergy would be greatly appreciated... thanks

I have a Vincent CDS - 10 which works really well for its price. Bought it in Singapore, for the same price as a Marantz CD17 Mk III. Liked the sound overall but the clincher for me was that vocals are the most "solid" that I have heard at the price and more. One practical problem, which is not so much a fault of the CDS 10 as it is to room matching, is that when I first installed it, huge amounts of bass was generated such that it was impossible to listen to my system - it became totally unbalanced tonally (to the point of drowning out mid and highs). I have since retuned the system by moving speakers further from the wall, repositoined by REL subwoofer, tuned my room to reduce unwanted standing wave at resonant frequencies etc. This has helped significantly to the point that I am sure the cost of the player is money well spent. At this time, there is still some very occasional slowness which I intend to remove by further room tuning, if possible.
Would appreciate anyone who has experience with tube swapping for either the CDS-10 or the Vincent SAT-1 advising on what tubes to swap for. I am told that the original tubes are rather poor quality and that a cheap upgrade can be had by putting in better quality tubes. As this is my first experience with tube products, any tips would be valuable.

I am going to buy a cd vincent s-6 MKII 24/96 HDCD, the new one with three tube at a good discount.
I own Dynaudio contour s 3.4, Amplifier Odyssey Stratos plus, and a pre a/V receiver Sony STR-DA 7ES.
Everybody talks very good about de cd-3, but I only have the opinion of the dealer talking about the plus of the warm sound because the tubes for the kind of music I hear (GOVI, Sade, folk celta, new age, Norah Jones, and my wife Julio Iglesias, I am sorry) but Queen and Nirvana too!
Have somebody here had the chance to compare both sound?, because in my city I can not and I do not want to make a mistake.
Also I could connect directly to the amplifier because the cd player has an variable output signal; you can control with the remote, so I should not need the sony, I can use XLR connectors insted of my RCA quality cables, but Do you think that really the use of XLR can improve the quality sound compared to quality RCA??
ABout the formats, I already own a Piooner 757Ai, with SACD and DVD-A, I was thinking in buying a better only SACD player but the dealer opinion was to expend the money only in a good cd player, so I will wait with my piooner what format is really coming.

I have a Shengya CD S10 , i'am italian and i bought it on EBAY at 264 euro+ship.
I had a CAMBRIDGE AUDIO CD6, a very nice CD player with a very good sound.
I have had in the past Onkyo top level, HK HD750, BUT THE CD10S IS ANOTHER THINGS!!! The jump of quality is enormous , and details and musicality now is a reality. I'am very very happy for it.
It has a solid metal chassis and it's heavy and adopt exectionally quality component....
Sorry for my poor english...

Extended midrange and upper mids. Very detailed without being bright. Good build quality.

Also, the Vincent products are definitely "kicked up" from the Shen Ya units. They even come with JAN Phillips tubes.
I have a CD6 in stock along with some pre-amps and power amps.

Hi all,
The vincent tube amps are made in China..all vincent gear i suppose,that's why teh gear ain't overly expensive ,but for European import they get some directions from the Netherlands ,those are also executed in China ..for EU import and sales it is imported by "audipulse" The Netherlandns ...(you'll find info if you use google)

Oops it's designed in Germany..some ex mark levinson engineers draw the Vincent designs..
I heard the vincent s6 cd player this week....very warm and musical sounding cd player,typical tube mid's(warm and naturel vocals) and hi's(clean, crisp)..a little bit lean on the bass,but not too lean,worked for both jazz and pop/to me a good cd player or gear must play every music..music wasn't overly dynamic,nor to laidback..very good cd player if you're looking for an affordable tubed cd player ... the mk2 has balanced outputs ..1200€ without balanced outputs 1050€
it uses 1x 12ax7/ecc83 and 2x 6922/ecc88 tubes...you can find these easely new(russian) ..or nos production if you wanna rol tubes(telefunken and amperex buggle boy are great nos ones but pricey)

Hi folks:
I discovered this thread and site while contemplating a purchase of a Kavent CD player. They make a North American version of the ShengYa/Vincent design. I bought a Kavent 731 CD player without an audition of any kind... just based on the parts list, which was all good, and what information I could find based on sites like this one. I was overwhelmed at how well my gamble paid off. I am extremely happy with the sound. It is full and warm and extremely well imaged. Prior to it's arrival I listened much more expensive equipment at local retailers (Cary, etc.). I think for the money you can't do better than the Kavent. I plug it directly into a Rotel power amp without a pre-amp stage using the volume control on the CD player. Speakers are the Thiel CS 0.5's. (I also have a pair of big Wharfedale's but don't use them because the room is too small.) Cables are Synergistics Research #2 and MAS Signature interconnects. You can buy the Kavent line direct from the manufacturer at audiogon.com. Call them if you have questions. I did and they were very helpful.

All what I can say is that Jungson CD players are ABSOLUTE KILLERS for the price and especially the SACD even used with standard CD's. I have personnally listened to it and can confirm the amazing transparence of this CD player. It blows the Vincent S6 CD away and at a lower price. By the way, I was personnally confirmed by reliable sources that the "German design" for Vincent products is pure fantasy.

Where did you find your SDV3 DVD Player ?
It seems that Shengya has been asked to stop to sell its products under its proper brand in China and I don't find any more supplyer at low price for this product in China.
