Looking for a CD Player w/XLR Outputs...

I have a Rotel RCD 1572 MKII with balanced XLR outputs.  It sounds great.  It’s been around for a few years so should available on the used market.  

Sony xa5400es has XLR, RCA, HDMI, Digital Out, sounds terrific

seller says verify still available

It plays SACDs also, and sends DSD out, not auto conversion to PCM as some units do

I asked for advice here, found one with low hours on the laser

I am curious what is taking up your unbalanced inputs?  It seems to me that if you want a CD player with XLR out, you are accepting the internal DAC as good enough.  But you might be better off getting a good transport and using digital out to a good DAC with XLR out.  DAC quality and cost are moving quickly, and a few years from now you won't be looking for a whole new player, just a new DAC.

lots of adapters and cables with mixed ends exist

I used a set of xlr/rca adapters for a while, I did not hear any deterioration

....also, if you have a CD player already, just without XLR, consider keeping that and buying a DAC with XLR out $600.  There is the Denafrips Ares II which can be had for $550 $600 on USAM or other sites today.
