Attn Vinyl lovers - what CD Player do you use?


While reading through the many threads on Vinyl vs. CD, I thought it might be interesting to see what CD transports/players Vinyl fans use when not listening to their analog rig?

phillyb, 

Exactly what I have been searching for; I hear the German label "Abraxas" is the one to have. Didn't know the label. Any other avenues to follow would be appreciated.
 I agree with your posts on analog and digital.
Play with gear of either but "Get Your Room Right" and "Dedicated"
Care in setup,dedicated ( No TV, HT, between the Speakers ) I am a fan of long ICs and TT out of the room. Classic Rock, some Jazz , tiny bit of Classical. I will look into the Marantz players ; the JVC will give up one day.

Thanks

Your right to have the turntable outside of your playing area. Not many know what of the nice effects of a turntable is it picks up the vibes and room in the reproduction and that gives it a special sound. On a good system just have someone cover the table with a cover, have the music playing and then lift the cover off, you will hear and feel it. Gives vinyl an acoustic feedback so to speak, your hearing your room. The Telefunken label may be long gone but google it. Your system should be about the music not the format nor gear. Gain the experience and you will know when good is good and then sit back and enjoy. I am finding more and more with cables and their off the wall designs are hurting music. Simple solid designs will do the trick, audio jewelry is just that, looks at sky high prices. By the way keep in my it was the Master tapes used and the pressing and cutting of the disc that made the Stones sound so good. To this when ever I hear Sympathy For Devil I feel sad, it sounds like crap compared to the Telefunken DMM pressing.
phillyb,

Lived in Juneau, AK. Quiet place in winter; especially 40mi out the road. Heard a noise, more that I felt something. Investigated outside. Nothing I could identify. Over and hour and I heard/felt it even more. About 1/2 hr later the sound/vibration increased. Staying at a wilderness lodge.sitting in the big room w/ windows that looked out to the ocean. Then saw the running lights
on the Alaska Marine Feery coming from 90ml north out of Haines. 
This incident made me realize low freq. / bass was a powerful force.
When we got home; I put the TT around the corner, away from direct sound.Better Everything!!
Dealers setup for convenience. You don't know their system or Room. Pay attention to detail/ setup. Even the best racks , TTs, floor, walls dance to the tune.
We spend so much on isolation devices. Out of the room; spend the bucks on long ICs or SC less on a lot of vibration control that will vibrate if you like to RockOut once in awhile.
