CD Player with best bass??

Let me throw this one out there. I have a system which is great in the mid and upper frequencies but a little light in the lower. I don't want artificial bass but want to make sure that I'm squeezing every little bit out of my CDs as possible. I'm looking for a player that has a full and clean bottom end. I have a Cary 300bSEI and a pair AKG K1000 phones. Based on my research to date, I'm thinking Cary. Any other ideas (Budget is $2k used). Thanx. I'm countin on you guys. Don't make me buy a subwoofer now...

CD players are not all alike in this regard!! A Great Northern Sound modified Wadia should present all the bass available quite powerfully. Unmodfied Wadias also have great bass, but when I replaced my 830 w/ a modified 850, I was surprised by the added authority in the bass. I thought the 830 was pretty good already.

I would hope that any cable would faithfully pass the signal sent into it. (said in jest to Sugarbrie - no malice / sarcasm intended!)
