Different CD Player

I am looking to replace my currant Cd player (Cary Audio 303/200). I am considering the following:

1) Marantz SA15s1
2) Marantz SA8001
3) Used Marantz SA14v2
4) Used Meridian 508.24

Would it be considered an upgrade with any of the above mentioned players? If so, which one would be the best bang for my buck. I am looking for stellar redbook performance and a player that will not have trouble reading cdr. Thank You.

Well the Marantz and Meridian players are a different direction from the Cary sound. IMHO, it would be a upgrade, but some may disagree. The Cary is more neutral and transparent, while the Marantz/Meridian will be richer tonally and more musical. Whether it is an upgrade is up to you.
