Best sounding CD Players with Variable Outputs to use Direct into Power Amp?


Looking for the best sounding CD players with variable outputs to use direct into my power amp. My amp is an Odyssey Stratos with Vandersteen 2c speakers. My budget is between $300-$400. Seems the most prominent brand to offer variable outputs on a lot of their players is Sony, particularly their ES stuff. One particular model I am considering is the CDP-X555ES. Does anyone have any experience with this player when using direct into a power amp? Another option is to use an Emotiva Control Freak (balanced XLR) with an Adcom GCD-750 I can pick up locally.
