Unfortunately, there si not a lot out there for the price range you are in. Few about $1,000 more you can pick-up a pre-owned meridian 508.20 maybe even a 508.24. A very good player for the money. Also the SONY X771ES CD player may be very good pre-owned or even a Mark Levinson #39.
Headroom MAX / Sennheiser 600, what CD?
I am about to receive a Headroom MAX / Sennheiser HD600 for use in my office. I am currently using a Sony MXD-D3 CD/MD machine as my audio source, this machine is OK but not 'great'. What would be a Great CD player with excellend sound that will do the amp/headphone combo justice? Looking for something up to $1,000-$1,200, used is fine. If it looks cool, that would be nice, too :))
