Budget CD player with USB input

I'm looking to put together a small system which will at times be used by my daughter when she practices music.  I need a CD player that has a USB input, but I'm looking to keep the cost low and the sound quality of the analog output high.

I'm not looking for anything ridiculous, something like NAD, Marantz, Rotel, etc.  Ideally $400 or less, and less is better.  Any thoughts?

Take a look at the Yamaha CD-S700.

Actually there are a few, IMO.  For the record, I do like the NAD amps but have no experience with the Marantz integrateds.

I have the all analog Yamaha A-S1000(48.5lbs) and absolutely love it.  It will run you about $1200.00 on the new market and $999.99 refurbished with warranty.

Yamaha also offers other integrated amps with built in DAC which do come in at lower price points, new and refurbished.  A-S501, A-S701, A-S801.
