Lexicon RT-20 or Cambridge 840C ?

I need to replace my CD player. I was considering purchasing a Cambridge 840C CD player for ~ $1200. I can buy a new Lexicon RT-20 for ~ $1000. I am more interested in listening to 2 channel CDs than DVDs. However, the DVD function would be nice. Any opinions on the sound quality on the Lexicon RT-20 vs the Cambridge 840C? Any recommendations?

Current equipment include Thiel CS 3.6 speakers, Bryston amp and Outlaw audio 990 processor that I am in the process of setting up for HT. I am also planning on purchasing a JL audio f113 sub for HT and stereo listening and a thiel SCS4 center speaker.

I use the RT-20 in my Spectral/MIT based system.
With appropriate ac power isolation and conditioning for it and your preamp it will likely prove the best component in your system.
It is truly a remarkable bargain in the high end. Very musical.
