MCD301 or ??

Considering purchasing a Mcintosh MCD301. I like the fact that it has a volume control so I can bypass my current pre. Any other units that should be considered in the $2K price range and has a DAC?

It looked and plays like brand new and I even got a brand new remote too. I purchased in October 2017. I still have it and use it often. It’s about 80% of my Esoteric SACD player I have in my main system. Looking at my receipt, it was $2200.00 plus $35 more for UPS shipping. I’m glad I got it then.
