A good CD player for about $ 1,500 used?

Hi:

I am putting together a second system in my bedroom and I am looking for a decent, used, CD player. My budget for the CD player is around $ 1,500. I listen to jazz music (mostly small combos/hard bop). The CD player in my main system is an Electrocompaniet ECM 1. Thank you for your help. Pablo.

I would think a Meridian 508.24 would work quite nicely. They are getting a bit old now so it might be worth contacting Meridian regarding transport replacement availability and cost.

By the way the Goldring 1042 that I bought from you is working out very nicely.

Ditto the 508.24 - a wonderful player!

$1,246.00 all decked out and ready to party.

I've had one for a couple years and couldn't be happier.

I bought a Muse model 9 sig gen 3 DVD/CD player and it sounds very close in performance to an Electrocompaniet ECM1UP, (whatever the exact name of their newest is). The Electro was more open and smooth but the Muse had a fuller range of midtones with similar bass. I bought mine for $1350 used.
