Real Deal ZU cable WAX, what's your take?

It's been about 50 hrs and things are improving. The bass has become more detailed and tight. The midrange has filled out, superb detail, but lacks a little in 3D imaging, depth is excellent. The highs are just about right, maybe a touch laid back but this is also the nature of the DQ20's. I am pleased with this cable and look forward to each day. I have enjoyed your comments about CD players, but I want your experiences to tell me if I can get better sound buying used over new. Can 3 grand get me better sound buying new or used. How about Wadia, Meridian, ARC used?
Thanks for your comments, I appreciate your thoughts!

I appreciate all your responses, definitely got me rethinking my CD options! Well another 20 hrs on my cables, I'm thinking very close to 70 total hrs and things are really starting to cook. The imaging which has been missing is now showing it's stuff, amazing transformation over the last couple of days. The stage is wide, stable and deep, I'm having difficulty finding the words explaining the transformation. I must admit that I also added a granite component stand with ceramic cones and blocks to the MD 208, I'm sure this has helped the imaging, which makes me think it was always there, just needed a stable platform to show itself. Overall I couldn't be more pleased. I have been thinking and after listening to some SACD's at a friends, I'm not sure going with a plain red book player is the way I want to go? I'm going to take a liitle more time before I decide, time i have. I wonder how many of us after saving our pennies to buy that next component or upgrade would make the same decision if they stopped - and took a little more time to decide? Very interesting topic for a thread. Let's hear your thoughts on the subject.
