Which CDP Provides Weighty Presentation $2k ?


I'm looking for a Solid State player for up to $2k Used that provides a weighty presentation in various systems (not heavily system dependent in performance). Looking particularly for weighty midbass and bass. (no leanness-not thin or light weight) There are many terms that fill in this sonic picture: low end grunt, heft, fullness, bass weight slam and extension; but I don't want rolled off or muted highs. I currently have a Jolida JD 100 and Sony Modwright 999ES.-Hydra 4, AZ IC's and speaker wire, DK Signature -Remimer Wind Rivers

I'm looking for a player with:

1. fullness/palpability
2. weight in midbass
3. weight in low bass
4. clean high end (not rolled off)
5. in other words,extended at the frequency extremes

Thanks for your feedback.

Why not just buy a Dac? The ECD-1 has this sound. So does the Paradisea Dac for less than half its used price(maybe not quite as extended though in upper frequencies) but well balanced none the less. The ECD-1 is probably what you're looking for..try to hear an Emperical Audio modded version if you can. Does everything you ask for in spades!!
