The best USED transport today - for under 500.00

I have owned the Rotel and the Aiwa mentioned above and have tried the Audio Alchemy.
I still own a Parasound and will not sell it. The Parasound is much better. Smoother, richer, deeper bass.
If you get the Aiwa modified by Stan Warren, it will be a little bit better than the Rotel and AA, but still not quite up to the Parasound.
