Hello,
I just went to my local Hifi store to check out some Rouge preamps and amps. They had a Sony CA777es CD player. It no longer plays SACDs. But the Redbook out of it was incredible. I have an Oppo 205 so I don’t really need it. They had it for $350 plus tax which sounds like a very good deal for a CD player with dog outs. https://holmaudio.com/ They do ship stuff. This component weighs quite a bit so it might be $40 to ship. Maybe I am not right about using it as a transport. The drawer was opening and closing smooth as silk and this sounded incredible.
