the best CD player between 6'000 - 10'000 $ ?
In dCS Puccini category I would choose Metronome T2i sig or Spectral 4000. MBL Noble line separates are distant third 
DCS Puccini and/or Soulution 740 players? Anyone??
Bvdiman, read carefully, I have said that I listened Scarlatti play in two different systems 
Spectral DMC 30SS& DMA 250, need advice
I have moved from Egglestons to Marten Miles III, I like them very much, using Emotion PC and one IC.I'm using isolation platforms under CDP and Power amp.

Mike Cary 306 pro is so much better then CD3, CD3 has metal sounding strings. I heard CD3 with AR preamp, Gamut monoblocks on Kharma CRM 3.2. First with expensive all silver cabling, then with all K-S Emotion cabling. With silver it was uninvolvin... 
Best sounding HDCD player??
306P cost 8kUSD, there is a CDP from HDCD inventor which is IMHO "little" better 
darTZeel NHB-18NS
I had Marten Birds and I liked them with Kubala-Sosna Emotion cables, partnered with Metronome T2i and ASR Emitter II with battery pack. 
Wadia 170i and Benchmark Dac1 - anyone try it?
re: transport,operative word being "if", there is so much information that gets lostre: iPodClassic introduces lots of jitter because of the moving parts in HDD, little iPods with flash memory is much better

New one is not much better, heard Scarlatti on the DartZeel and ProAc D100; and on full Spectral/SDR 4000, DMC 30SS, DMA 250)/MIT/Magico Mini II system. SDR 4000 was so much musical and involving then Scarlatti.

Clavil do your ancesters come from Romania? Are you afraid of garlic :-D ? 
Any insight with the Berkeley Alpha DAC ..??
Lightminer,with right SW (RR HRX) Alpha DAC is much better then stacks and products. Especially used driving poweramps direct. 
Edge NL12.1: what smallish floorstanders/monitors?
Vienna Acoustic speakers, Sonus Faber Cremona M, Eggleston Works Fontaine II 
Wadia 170i and Benchmark Dac1 - anyone try it?
Yeah, and all CD transports sound the same

Mert, with "wrong" associated gear and cables Puccini can and does sound dull and underwhelming. dCS to me is like computer audio. 
DCS Puccini and/or Soulution 740 players? Anyone??
I heard it and it's cold and analytical, overblown images. Lot of sounds but not much music out of it. 
DCS Puccini and/or Soulution 740 players? Anyone??
I have yet to hear something that could beat Metronome Kalista one box player
