Best redbook cd-only player ?


I have a substantial collection of redbook cd's. I don't foresee adding SACD's, nor am I interested in servers or USB connectivity. But I do need to replace my 17-year-old two-box combo.

Is anyone else stuck in the past also (smile) who can suggest a high-resolution, musical cd-only player ? It's hard to justify paying thousands more for functionality I won't ever use.

thanks,

Hi Lloydelee21,

I am not up to date with their latest units. After 20 years of digital sonic revolutions :-) I am really amazed what THAT unit can do with regular CD's. Excellent soundstage, the tones are good, it can't change a mediocre Mastering to a top one, but it is really amazing with the Standard CD's. I prefer those more than SACD, the tonal Balance is simply better overall. And 2. Hand it is really a good recommendation.
