Marantz CD6005,SA8004 or Oppo 105?

Hey,

I'm finally upgrading my system after many years and would like to hear some feedback about these difference sources. I currently have a pair of B&W 630's, an old Denon reciever and a Sony multi cd changer.

Last year I demoed the Marantz 5004, and while it was much more detailed, with much more bass response, it wasn't the most musical to my ears. Rock sounded great on it, but it was lacking with Jazz or Classical.

Anyone familiar with the above cd players? I won't be using the Oppo for anything other than listening to music.
I have my eye on the above cd players and would love to get some feedback or advice. About them or better alternatives.

Thanks
klimt

If you are just going to listen to CD's, I would try to find a used Rotel RCD-1072. They do come up for sale every so often, but you have to be fast because they sell almost immediately. Its just one of those components that they just got right.

Mceljo,

Why SACD? Its a great format but I don't see a lot of support for it. Are you able to find music that you really want to listen to? For me, I just accumulated a bunch of demo CD's that I used to test the format, but not much more.
