Warrenh,
I use a cheap DVD/CDP connected to the back of a TV. I just eliminate the video. I put the IC in the chain and use the Ayre disc (20.00) and put it on repeat. Music Direct is one source if you are interested in the Ayer disc or go to Ayre's website for info.
After a week of constant play I put it in my system to audition. It has worked for me and I am not putting excessive wear on my reference gear. Good luck.
