CD player with XLR's and volume control ?


I am looking for a CD player to use with a pair of Monarchy SM70 Pro's vertically biamping a pair of (for now) Audio Note AN EL's. CD player instead of transport/DAC for simplicity's sake.
I thought I had a good candidate with the Cambridge Azur 840, but find that it has no volume control.
Budget is in the $500-1,000 range, and listening tastes range from simple guitar/piano/vocal to easy jazz/classic rock, most at lower to moderate listening volume.
Welcome all suggestions and counsel ...
Thanks,
