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.

By "flexible" do you mean capable of playing multiple formats or have other capabilities?  If you are looking for a universal player, the Oppo 105 is certainly hard to beat, particularly with streaming and a great DAC. 

If you are only playing red book CDs, I think a dedicated CDP will sound better.  There are some great used options that you can find for around $1k.
