What CDP gets really close to vinyl?

Hello, I have been looking for a CD player that is truly airy, transparent, and in this sense similar to vinyl. So far I did not have much luck. I tried a variety of brands, from Rega to Meridian to Ayre, and now own an EAR Acute. Each of these players is wonderful in its own way, but the sense of spaciousness, air, the "I am there in the symphony hall" feeling has never achieved what I can get with a good turntable and good cart. Has anyone had better luck?

thanks to everybody for the answers provided so far. it looks like in terms of equipment it might be worth looking into modwright.

as for the quality of the actual source material, are there particular cd manufacturers that are audiophile-oriented? or places on the web that sell especially good stuff? thanks.
