rock and roll cd player

I want a great sound but I also want great dynamics. Listen mostly to classic rock, adult alternative, and smokey old 2:00 am jazz. I know alot of the recordings arent so hot recording wise. I also have a Meridian 541 pre amp, What about meridian, or rega. Is the difference between the planet and the jupiter worth the extra $$. Is there anything else out there to consider. Should I wait for a double duty dvd? I have a lmix of speakers electrostatic, ddd's, and conventional cone. Kind of like bright in you face but dont like solid state "metalic sound" love live music.

Thanks

The best CD player for rock music that I found is the Linn Genki or the more expensive Ikemi, combined with all Linn electronics and Linn speakers. You can find the Linn cdp readily available in the used market. Alternatively, also try the Adcom 750 or the Arcam FMJ (also used); both of which have great dynamics and output excellent bass. In regard to the Rega, I have had no experiences with any of their components, so I can't comment on them.

Good luck and happy listening!
