Ditto to that. The Oppo 103 (if you'll use a digital connection) or 105 (if you'll use RCA cables to connect with your amp) is a no-brainer choice. And don't be afraid to use top-notch cables with the Oppo, it's definitely worth it.
Best Flexible Digital player around $1000
I am a dedicated vinyl listener and have not had a CD player in my system for 4-5 years. I have a lot of music on CD's and new music that I really like that is not available on vinyl. So I am looking for a great CD player that will also provide some flexibility for streaming/computer audio in the future. I have looked at the Marantz 8004 which seems to provide for all of this for about $1000 but I know there are other options. Thanks for your help.
