CD Player Advice


I am looking for advice on CD players. My current player is the Rega Planet 2000. I'm fairly new to the quality audio market, and probably don't have the right vocab, but I can say that I find the Rega a bit harsh.

Other equipment: Creek 5350, VA Bach, Wastach LC-530 speaker cables, Wasatch 104-U interconnects

My favorite music is acoustic, blues - a lot of Calpton, Garcia, Grisman.

I'm willing to spend 1-2K, used or new, solid state or tubed.

The other CD player that I have listend too on my system in the creek CD43, which I liked alot - better than the rega. IT seemed to have a softer and more realistic sound, but I'm guessing that I can even better than that.

any advice is appreciated. thank you

You could spend under $1000 on a fully modded Ah! Njoe Tjoeb 4000 or Jolida CDP, and spend the rest of the money upgrading other components, investing in isolation devices, tuning your room, or buying more music.
