Which is a reliable CD changer?


I am seeking the convenience of a multi-disc (5?) CD changer to be used as a transport to feed a DAC. I would like a coax digital output. Even more important, however, is build quality, decent ergonomics, and reliability. I have owned Sony and Yamaha in the past and not had a problem with either. I will not even consider NAD. I have read lots of horror stories about Marantz and HK stuff not working right out of the box, so forget that junk, too. Any other suggestions?

There is a CAL CL-10 for sale right now. I am using one with a Classe' DAC and it sounds terrific. The CAL has coax, AES/EBU and some even have ST glass digital out. Or maybe a CL-5 which would be cheaper and since you are using an outboard DAC would sound just as good. Only downside is CAL may be a little more difficult to service.
