My Phish is Dead Cary it or Proceed to new Planet


I need some help, I am in the market for a used CDP in the under $1300 range. I listen the Phish, the Dead, bluegrass, lots of jazz and me and my boys rock to the Rachmaninov.

My current system is;
B&W 805: speakers
Classe CP35; preamp
CAL DX2: CDP
Anthem AMP1; amp
Tara & Kimber cables

I'm looking to start rebuilding the whole system starting with the CDP and I am looking for input. I am looking at a Cary 303-100, Musical Fidelity A3, Proceed CDP, Rega planet 2000 or Jupiter, Classe CDP1 and the Adcom GCD-750.

Guide me oh wise ones who have the priveledge and experience

Thanks SUKO

Slipknot!
Yeah the second I read your user name I thought Help is on the Way. Funny thing, your recommendation of the Jolida. I am expecting mine in the mail tommorrow. I hope I like it I will let you know. Hey if you like SCI and also like smaller less known bands have you heard of Yonder Mountain String Band, great jam bluegrass and relatively new!
Suko:
yeah! I've seen them live a couple of times. Another is a small West Virgina band by the name of The Recipe. Ever caught one of their shows? Leftover Salmon and The Tony Trischka Band are right up there too. Tony sort of mentored Bela Fleck (just to give you some idea of the level of his banjo virtuosity)
Nope haven't heard of the recipe, Leftover was just here on Saturday but I wasn't able to catch there show, 3 week old baby, My wife has seen Tony Trischka many times and I got to catch him at the Northwest String Summit this year. Oh yeah ever seen Dark Star, Dead cover band that plays live shows, there a lot of fun, I know it sounds a bit corny but it's a bit spooky....in a good way.
