CDP with best bass response

Looking for a CDP to use in my HT setup for 2ch music,I am a bass lover and would like one with deep tight well defined bass,some that come to mind are,Cary 308 or 303/200, Meridian 508.24 or 508.20,I have a DVD player that is used for HT but would like a seperate CDP.Would like to spend under $1500.00 used.

I had Meridian 508.20 and 508.24 in years past...superb players, but outclassed in bass extension, filigree and punch by BAT VK-D5SE. Now a very happy BATman.

I second Boa2's suggestion. The XA7ES I owned was incredible. Actually the XA777ES is no slouch either. Most of the Top Line Sony Players have great bass...

Sony XA7ES
Not an expansive midrange, but the extension is
good, and the bass is awesome.

I thought my Theta Miles did bass well. Wish I'd kept it.

Best is subjective, in my experience I suggest you check out the Consonance Droplet cdp....it is significantly better in all ways than my former gear: Wadia 830 and BAT VK5Dse...the bass is phenomenal....new lists at $3K but you can get discount....try to stretch to get this cdp...you'll like the bass.
