After extensive auditioning I purchased the Audio Aero Capitole Mark II redbook Cd player. I had already pretty much decided on the AA and my decision was anchored by posts here on Audiogon. The latest release comes with an analog passthrough which means you don't need a pre unless you like vinyl. The AA's main circuit board is upgradable so that you are not stuck with an older chip.
Some AA owners are opting for the EMM which I have not heard and so far they are talking of promises with the EMM but I have yet to see an insightful review of this product.
If you do a search on Audiogon specific to the Audio Aero you will find many other fans of this CD player and a number of referances to it's closest competition and this will assist you in your decision.
