Best Basic CD Player (no SACD, USB, etc.)


Hey guys! Old dude here! My Panasonic SL-PJ316 CD player took a dump after years of faithful service. I started looking around for a replacement only to discover CD players with price tags into the thousands of dollars!! WTH??  Ok, I know there is SACD, USB, bluetooth, etc. BUT, I am not going to try and re-purchase my entire CD collection of almost 40 years to buy a SACD player. And, from what I've read, the USB, streaming lot seems to cause problems in certain players. ALL I need is a high quality, basic CD player that won't cost thousands of dollars. Any suggestions? Yamaha? NAD? Marantz? I'm "all ears". Thanks, for the advice. Best regards, Rob

Just fyi. An SACD player would not cause you to resign buy your collection. It will still play regular cds as well. 

Where you at? I’ll give you my NAD 502 that works great. Prob comparable to the 3-500 players on the market I’m guessing.
