Need help from Wadia and ML CD player owners

Hello,

I recently sold my all Sonic Frontiers which including cd transport, dac, preamp and power amplification and got myself a Krell FPB-300c. As of now i am missing a cd player.
I am looking for a cd player that has a volume control so that i can elimate a preamp. Try to elimate all the box units and have very simple audio system. Just a cd player, amp and speakers. So far i was looking at the Wadia 850 and the Mark Levinson 39. My price range is no more then 3500.00. Prefer used. I only audit the ML 390s but know it is somewhat different from the ML 39. Can someone help me out on this or give me some suggestion some other brand of cd players that has a volume control.

My current system
Krell FPB-300c
B&W Nautilus 803
MIT Oracle W4

Thanks,
Jimmy

Thanks for all the help my fellow audiophiles. I have though about getting the wadia 850 or 860 instead of the levinson 39. After audit at the dealer on the levinson and the wadia 861, i still feel the wadia has a very cleaning and clear sound points. Very smooth, soft sound and excellent detail. Maybe it could be the setup because it was connect to a Pass Labs X350 and B&W 802.

For the greatnorthernsound.com modification, how good is the sound quality. I was thinking of probably getting my future Wadia modified from them.

Thanks,
Jimmy
