CD Players which connect direct to Amp?

I asked the same question a while back, you may go over past threads. At any rate, I wound up buying a new preamp, after I upgraded my cd player. I do remember that the Accuphase was recommended to me, but its price was prohibitive. New models by Accuphase are due soon at any rate. If you have deep pockets, I was told on a number of occasions that they perform flawlessly and sound exquisite. I am happy with my Arcam FMJ and ARC preamp combo and lust for no better equipment-wise. I take my hard earned cash and buy recordings. Let the merry-go-round merrily go around, catch the music not the hardware bug. May the audio Gods always shine upon you!

All WADIA's, of course.
They actually invented the "change volume in the digital domain".

I have a Cary 303 with volume control (list is $500 extra), driving 60 feet of xlr mike cable to remote pre and system.

Be careful with some of the recommendations if you are looking for a player with an ANALOG volume control (which is how I read your original post) ... some of the players mentioned (especially the Wadia's) adjust volume in the digital domain. Not necessarily bad per se, but if you are only interested in analog controlled players, something to watch out for.

Good point, that being said the accuphase units make volume attenuation in the digital domain, fwiw.
