Recommendations for used cd player
How about a Proceed PDT3/PDP3 combo?They're very musical and they fit nicely within your budget.I've seen them here for sale for around 1K. 
HELP Subwoofer connection, high level or low leve
i believe the sub "sniffs" one input first then switches to the other input if no signal was present in the first input. i just dont know which input the sub checks first, the speaker level input or the low level input. 
Personal speaker evolution

How much can low-fi subwoofer bring down a system?
You might want to check out the ACI Titan sub.I too am thinking of getting a subwoofer to augment my main speakers and the concensus seemed to be either a REL or an ACI sub. RELs may be auditioned at a local hiend store while the ACI is factory di... 
Your experience with Thiel 3.6

Need help choosing a Sub that will work well.....

With regards to Turnarounds comments, i, too, have a tv in between the speakers however i dont have the room to pull my speakers out further into the room. I really love the Thiel sound but being that i love my other speakers (maggie 2.7qr and ML ... 
CD Players that deliver outstanding vocals
I love my Wadia 850. If you can stretch your budget wait til one shows up here in the classifieds otherwise the older Proceed (circa early to mid 90s) transport and dac combos are very musical. Looking at the prices here they'll set you back about...

What about Velodynes? They were big 6-8 years ago(r they still?) but no one has said anything about them. 
Thiel 2.3 amplification
If you can audition a Classe amp go for it.Highly recommended. A CA 200 will IMHO pair really well.If you can come across a Levinson 27.5 or a 331 for a decent price then i would go for them too. Classe will just give you more bang for the buck. 
Your experience with Thiel 3.6
I'm looking to get a pair of pre-owned 3.6's but after reading all these responses i either need a bigger house or think about getting a smaller pair of thiels. My listening room is probably 15X20 at best(more like 12X18), what are your thoughts? ...
