Rega Planet 2000 vs. Jolida LD-100

I'm here to solicit opinions since I live about 120 miles from the nearest dealer of quality audio gear and have little opportunity to audition equipment. Since I have learned so much from reading these forums over the years as a bystander, I thought I'd ask your opinion on CDP's. I'm interested in purchasing a player in the $500-$700 range (used) and have found the reviews on these two to be overall outstanding.

I'm not really interested in SACD as I watch very few DVD's. So my question to you: Would you go with the Rega or the Jolida (or feel free to recommend another). I've considered the Sony XA7ES, but they typically sell for $1k used... a tad out of my price range.

Thanks!

Thanks for your input folks! I bought my JD-100 about a week ago and have been breaking it in gently since. So far I'm impressed with it's value (sure there are better, but for the money, it's hard to beat). I'm going to let it get a few hundred hours on it and then start playing with tubes.

There are some wonderful tube-rolling guides already on the forums for the Jolida.
