Cayin CD 50T , or something else?

This player appeals to me although I won't be able to hear it before buying. Anyone out there using one? What do you think? My ancient 1st. generation Proceed player has finally died and I spend most of the time with a pretty good analog/tube set up. Will the Cayin satisfy? I really think any more money is just too much for Redbook digital. Can I get just as much music for less $ somewhere else? One prerequisite is no players with Phillips transports. Thanks for any info on this or any other players below $1500.00

there was a previous thread on this topic. Everyone, including myself love this CDP. I've ordered a new AWV tube and can't wait to try it out because its already very nice with the stock tube.

I just installed a AWV tube and posted my impression on it. To summarize, it improved the soundstage, dynamics and bass. The tube only cost me $10 from Ebay and its moved this cdp up a notch or two. Its now a real giant killer.
