$2K to spend on used SS linestage, but which?

Tank-like build, quality "guts," rich sound are critical. It will replace (because I'm a hobbyist and want to try something else) my beloved c-j Premier 14, which had those attributes in spades .
Will be used, for the time being, with a Classé DR-8 (old, but still oh so sweet) amp, and the latest cdp from either Electrocompaniet or Accuphase.
I listen equally to jazz, classical, rock, opera.

Jayme, reconsider going ss line from a CJ/DR8 position. The flat-ness of passive will remain.

Get a Supratek Chardonay line stage (see thread here). A bit over $2K, but if you are looking at Accuphase digital, this shouldn't be an issue.

You will not regret it...
