Seeking alternatives to Oppo

I am considering going with a single box player in place of my current transport/DAC. My friend loaned me his Oppo BDP 83, and after a day of listening, (I'm still evaluating it) I think that the BDP 105 might be a good alternative for my system. The thing is, I like all of the extra features, but I am most concerned with conventional CD replay, and I would like opinions any members may have about players in the same price range ($1,200.00)that you feel are as good or better than the Oppo. I was very impressed by the dynamics of the lesser BDP 83, and dynamics are one of my priorities.
Thanks

Roxy54,

If you don't want/need BD, then the CA 851C would be an excellent choice. As a matter of fact, a used 840C would be great also, if you don't need a DAC with a USB connection. The closest thing to the Oppo 105 is the CA 752BD, which has most features if not all the features the 105 has.
