Lots of candidates here but one that merits consideration is the Arcam FMJ 23.

Of the units I've heard, I'll say the Rotel 1072. Awesome player for the price. 700 new.

I've heard from others that the Rega Apollo is top notch as well.

A real sleeper is the Consonance CD120 Linear. I just purchased one a few weeks ago for $800 new and love it.

there is a cool modded uni player under the cd section here that might meet your needs, I've been reearching the Samsungs as they are suppoed to sound amazing once modded and might purchase thi one.

Sonic Frontiers SFCD1. I have had mine for 8 years and even after buying a Bat 5DSE player I have not had the heart to sell. Not as good as the BAT but for the money Darn close.
