CD Source for Adcom Amplification


Hello,

I have just purchased the Adcom GFA-5400 and the Adcom GTP-502, and am looking for a source that would match with these amps. I am using B&W DM601 (original version) speakers. I am looking for a nice detailed ,dynamic and smooth sound.

I was looking at using a DVD player as a transport for use with a DAC, but am changing my mind, and consider using a Marantz CD5000 as it has the features I like such as CD text.

I am looking for something in the $200 - $600 range and am looking at new. If you have any suggestions I would be very grateful.

In a nutshell cd player to go with my system for a smooth, dynamic, and involving sound. (either as a transport for my DAC or as a stand alone player)

Thanks

To mate nicely with your system , the Adcom 750 single tray cd only unit is an underrated performer . Somewhat higher than the 600 you suggest but dont dismiss it. I pulled mine out of a cdr- playback- record system I have seperated from my high res system and traded places with my Bat vk-d5 se tube cd player and the difference wasnt as great as I had thought.
