Hi!
I strong recommend you the NAIM CD5 + FlatCap2.... Used with the best cables of the world (Cardas Golden Cross) and tube amplification, the result is awesome!!
Greetings,
JM.

I listen to about 85-90% vinyl. But I have had a Jolida JD100A for a couple of weeks now and have been furiously revisiting my forgotten discs. No, it ain't vinyl, but it does have a very analog-like presentation. Ignore the budget price and give this player a listen.

Presently using a CEC Transport, Levinson Dac, and Purcell upsampler. Very smooth, but different from vinyl, however; auditioned in my system the MBL 1511D Dac and MBL 1521 transport and will be selling my Verdier Plantine Turntable, so I can buy the MBL Duo. The MBL Duo bested anything digital and most of the analog I've heard.
