Best CD Player - Opinions?

I currently have a Wadia 850 CD player within a dual Home Theater / Audio system. I'm looking to upgrade and contemplating the Wadia 850, EMC-1, Levinson or Krell 28kps CD players. What opinions do you have on the best CD player I can pick? Thanks for the help.

Supermighty, do you currently own the Wadia 850, or your looking to get it. If you own it, you dont need to upgrade. That is an awesome CD Player.

I strongly agree with Brauser. The CD-2 had great reviews and sounds wonderful. It made me re-think that my attitude about my turntable. It is quite a bargain as a used CDP.

Twilo,
I currently own the Wadia 850. It's a typo in my original message - I ment to say I was considering upgrading to a Wadia 861.

I am leaning toward keeping the Wadia 850 and getting the reference upgrade through Great Northern Sounds. The feedback on their work with the 850 is great. Anyone who has any feedback on that please let me know

Thanks,
SuperMighty

Get the upgrade from great Nothern Sound. Steve was a designer for Wadia. Another great Wadia CD Player was the 16. This was the CD Player the Wadia 850 and 860 replaced.
