Mcintosh CD players vs. Wadia Cd Players

I'm getting ready to purchase the McIntosh MCD 1100 but a friend mentioned the 2 Wadia players (I forget the models but one was a little more the other a little less $$. I haven't heard either but I tend to like the more detailed sound over warmth. Anyone hear both?
tnx.

I've owned a Wadia 861b since 2002, yes 10 years. It has not had one problem and it gets an average of 8 hours of play per week I'd say. In fact, for the past several weeks I've been playing it 24/7 as I've been breaking in new amplifiers and power conditioners. Thing is built like a tank and I'll be shocked if it ever dies. Obviously it must at some point, but my Muse Model 10 (also 10 years old) has already been repaired twice and meanwhile the Wadia keeps on playing without issue.
