$500 (or less) CD players to mate w/ Marantz PM8004 & Vandersteen 2C

Was thinking of selling my Adcom GCD-575 and upgrading to something more "current." The 575 sound good, but I'm curious to know if there is anything out there for $500 (or less) that would mate better with my other gear. One player I'm particularly curious about is the Marantz SA8004, which would match the PM8004 integrated. Anyone use both of these units together? Other brands include NAD, Rega, Rotel, etc...

an older Oppo might fit

a newer player will have a newer DAC, and they are improving more rapidly over time than other components

the post re keeping it as a transport and adding an outboard DAC is an appealing idea...

or... rip your CDs onto a computer like a mac mini
