In 2010 I switched to computer audio, if found myself never firing up my CD players. I sold them off a couple of years ago, but they were both very good for the money... Don't remember either model number, but One was an NAD... I know that it was an upper end BEE model... The second that I had was an MHZS Tubed player. I found a bunch of threads for mods and I modded the crap out of the MHZS... It was a great sounding player.

Price range is around 1,200 US. So far I have only considered the Oppo 105D. Current player is a Sony Playstation 1, which sounds better than it has any right to for $30. The player will be the lone source in a bedroom system. Integrated will be Heed Obelisk, small monitor speakers TBD.
