backup cd player


Looks like ill have to send in my player to get a drawer glitch repaired...We know how long that takes...at the most $1500.00 would be what I like to spend on a player...suggestions?

I recently decommissioned my $5m CDP and have no intention of replacing it. Consider getting a CD ripper. In short order I ripped my 500 CD collection bit for bit. It's backed up and I never have to worry about it again.
To start, try the Bluesound Vault. It's inexpensive and has a great interface for your tablet or phone. You can also download up to 24/192 from sites like HD Tracks and use Tidal and Spotify to test drive the world of music.
Anyway, it's a cheap way to test these waters.
Another one to consider, though an SACD player also, is the Yamaha CD-S1000 or CD-S2000 for that matter. If these players are anywhere near as good as their counterpart integrated amps(A-S1000, A-S2000), then I highly recommend them. Both the players weigh in at a very stout 33 pounds.

Looks like A4Less is out of stock of the CD-S1000 at the moment but they regularly sell them for under $900.00.
