CD"S

Pioneer makes a Universal Player for around $1K that is supposed to sound great.  My recommendation would actually be to get a transport for around $500 and spend the rest on a great DAC.  If you want to dip your toe in the streaming waters at some point then you will already have a DAC.

As you might suppose I am in agreement generally with audiotroy.  Except that you don't have to spend big bucks to rip the disks.  I rip disks (with metadata) easily and maintain my library using JRiver.  Also, I have discovered that a laptop can give fine and quiet service provided it is a very simple (and inexpensive) one.  I use a 14" ASUS with small eMMC storage and with the screen turned off for playback.  I believe this works better than a powerful laptop to minimize computer-generated noise.  Great laptop for travel too as its simplicity results in very long battery life.  Add a 1TB portable HD and you're in business.

+1 for Audio Advisor. Great company to deal with if they have the product your looking for.
