Which good CD transports can be found in the used market?


I've used the Mac "Superdrive" cd/dvd transport that came with my Mac Mini to play and rip CD's into iTunes. So i know that I'm not getting the best quality 1's and 0's I listen to.   As I'm retired and on a budget, am unable to go out and buy a Cambridge CXC or the like.   Which older-model cd players, dvd players or stand-alone transports do you suggest I consider ...and at what price might I be able to find them?  Thanks, people!!

Depending on your budget, CEC makes some of the best transports available.  Here is a CEC CD player, but it would make a really sweet transport, (has AES/EBU, Coax RCA and toslink outputs).

This was just posted for sale and will not last long.  No affiliation with the seller, just pointing out a GREAT deal.

Also, the Rotel RCD-1072 makes a fantastic transport.
