Looking for a CD Player


I am in the process of replacing my Moon CD 5 CD Player --- or might be no reason to replace my present CD Player.  The next CD player if purchased is probably going to be my last as I am a senior in age.  My wife and I are tired of getting up and down and up and down did I mention up and down to listen to the other side of an album. So, we have a number of CDs and frankly like the ease of listening to them.  Not wanting to purchase streaming music.  Therefore, we / I need an education on two subjects -    Do we need to have a DAC incorporated in the CD player and secondly do we need to have SACD capability??  Not wanting to spend more than 3000.00.  All the help would be appreciated.

@jayctoy ,he also said he's not computer or phone "savy" so all help is welcome...At our advanced age,it's hard for some not exposed to the tech to even comprehend how amazing streaming truly is..IMO spending good $ on a CD player is a WASTE!
 He also said they were tired of getting up & down to change music & that they like the ease of playing music on CD...These factors clearly point to streaming as the direction he should take,he only needs a bit of education...

You don't need a "computer" to stream.  Decent, small, self-contained streamers can be had for less than $500.  It's a wonderful way to listen to an enormous variety of music for the price of a single CD every month.  And anyway, the Black Ice unit I mentioned covers all the bases--a CD player, an excellent DAC, AND a high-quality streamer thrown in for good measure.  The OP gets what he wants plus the opportunity to investigate a new format.

As for artist compensation, well, that horse has left the barn.  As of 2022, CDs accounted for less than 3% of music sales.  If an elite classical label like Hyperion can finally hop on the streaming wagon, as they did last year, there must be a reason.

...and if my 72 yo, computer illiterate audiophile friend can work the Black Ice streamer (which he can, thanks to excellent personal assistance from Black Ice), anyone can.

Dogearedaudio thank you for good info.You made me think to try streaming now.
