Has anyone heard the Simaudio Andromeda cdp ?
I have heard it with the P8, W8 and JM Lab Utopias. The combo was very nice. The background was the darkest of any system I have ever heard. It was very neutral with lots of detail. Way out of my price range but, I have a nice dealer that lets me ... 
Dedicated CD player or multi-plr for 90 music ?
I don't know the rest of your system but, 10K sounds like it is pretty nice. I am not should an $800 CDP would do it justice. You might consider waiting a while and when you have more funds available try then. What is the rest of your system?

CD Player for 2 Channel System
That's the great thing about the Gon. You can buy it used and if you don't like it sell it and try something else. Out of the players you listed I like the Equinox the most. Good Luck. 
Seperates vs Integrated at $2000

Amateur inherited an audio system...
I agree with Unsound. You should keep the system for a bit and see if hi-fi audio is something you would get into. If not you will lose little or no money in depreciation 6 motnhs down the road. I don't know how serious you and your girlfriend are...
