Very happy with my Cambridge 851C. It is so close to my table, I use it more often unless I'm in the mood to go through the process of spinning vinyl. It's not a forgiving player, so if the quality of the recording is poor it's not going to fudge things. The previous 840C is a little more forgiving and still a fine player, but it's not as refined as the newer player. I am running SR Black fuses in my 851C which brought it to another level, but even with the stock fuses it's still an outstanding player. As with any of these better to players, they require proper cables to bring out the best they have to offer so be prepared to spend a little extra to get there. Very versatile player, with a strong DAC and preamp if you ever want to use it with a NAS, computer or feed an amp directly.

Price range is around 1,200 US. So far I have only considered the Oppo 105D. Current player is a Sony Playstation 1, which sounds better than it has any right to for $30. The player will be the lone source in a bedroom system. Integrated will be Heed Obelisk, small monitor speakers TBD.
