$1K CD Player for Amp w/ truly balanced inputs

Ill 2nd the Adcom GCD 750, you can get a mint condition used player for $700 easy. This is truely a great player, and there are alot of mods for it too.

Agree that the Theta Miles (balanced version) is one of the best choices in this price range.

The price of a balanced version Theta Miles has recently dropped to the $900-1000 range. It is a very good CD player for that kind of money. Of course, like the Sony mentioned, the Miles is a few years old now, BUT, it is a very good company and service/parts should be available for a long time (the transport mech is the Pioneer Stable Platter-Excellent, and redily available).

I really enjoyed the Miles when I owned it. I have replaced it with a Resolution Audio Opus 21, which is significantly better, but you'll spend at least $2200-2800 for a used one.

Enjoy,

Sony XA7ES - their former $3000 top of the line can be had for $1k or so. Truly differential balanced outs.

Suggest you check out the Adcom GCD-750 CD player. It usually goes for around $700 used but is quite good.
Happy listening!

I am not sure, but perhaps Rotel offers a model that meets your requirements.
