Favorite one box C.D.??

Really stuck between adding an external DAC or going to a great one box solution. Some names that come to mind are Cary 306/200, ARC CD3, Electrocompaniet EMC1 UP, AudioMeca Meridian 508.24 as well as a few others. I really like detail yet without the harshness of digital or digital glare. Any and all opinions would be valued.

Good Listening and Happy Holidays to all,

Rec (or anyone else with info of course),
I've heard some uncomplimentary things about the mechanical reliability of the Audiomeca's - have you heard or experienced any such thing? I almost pulled the trigger on a Mephisto II transport, but backed off. I hope I made a good decision :-(

Anyone comment on an AudioNote CDP? I think their one-box is not in the same price-league with some of these.
