Get a Sony SCD-777ES, around $1500. After you enjoy it for a while, spend $260 plus installation for a new Superclock masterclock or $650 for the complete replacement of the analogue output stage and the bypassing of the DACS!
The beauty of the latter mod is that it adds another set of outputs and in no way affects the performance of the stock machine, so you can A-B to your heart's content. . .
I've never heard Burmester, and don't expect I ever will, but this combo does it for me.
