Best CD Player For Me?????

Digital Drive

Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

Here is one I know people hate to answer but here goes. I'm looking for a very high quality CD player for my system. I'm currently using McIntosh amp (MC206) and pre amp (MX119)with the new B&W 803D's. My decision on this stuff had a lot to do with the fact that this was the only dealer in town (Atlanta) that I could find with a great upgrade policy (they give 100% credit for any upgrade made within one year of purchase). Now I'm looking to upgrade my source component. I'm open to just about anything. I would say that it would need to come from somewhat of a mainstream audio company simply because I haven't found too many dealers in Atlanta suprisingly that carry many of the more esoteric brands. My main requirements are awesome soundstaging and detail without being overly bright or fatiguing. I'd like suggestions in the under $2,500 range as well as $2,500 to $5,000. It might also be nice if it was a SACD player as well or even a universal player but a reference type CD player is the first priority. Let me know your ideas. Thanks.

In your system, you need not spend more than $2,500 - Ian Mackenzie 12:36:51 05/13/05 (1)
