DEDICATED CD PLAYER $1K AND UNDER, THOUGHTS?

Hello All. I'm considering upgrading my Marantz CD5005 cd player. I have enough silver disks to warrant treating them right. The Marantz has been ok but getting longer in tooth. I was curious as to what my fellow 'Goners have heard in the above price range that represent good values (new or used is fine). Amp is a Rogue Sphinx and speakers are new Magnepan MMGi's. Listening tastes are blues, classic rock and a smattering of jazz...Input appreciated...

I have seen used Marantz 8005 players on here for under 800.00.

My advice is to save up another $200.00 and copy all your cd’s to a Bluesound Vault 2.  No more CD player period!  All your cd’s can get stored in your closet.

The Vault does require a wired internet connection which most people have, but if you don’t then you’re stuck with using a player.
