The Classé CDP-300 - The World's Most Beautiful $6500, 35lb DVD Player

I'm just enough of a dreamer (that means fool in French) to still believe I might have enough change in the couch cushions to get the Samsung TV we talked about the other day. If I dig really hard, I might be able to also get one of the most beautiful DVD players I've ever seen. The Classé CDP-300 sports a metal case, touch-screen, and will only set you back $6,500. According to Engadget:

As the first model in the Delta series, the CDP-300 hints at good things to come from this lineup, with 1080p upconverting via HDMI, XLR balanced outputs, component RGBHV, a touchscreen display, and the usual assortment of regular component video, S-video, composite, digital coax, and optical hookups. One nice feature of the touchscreen is that it also serves as a video preview monitor, so you can view and control DVD-Audio discs without powering-up your main display.

Couch, here I come!
