I was considering Esoteric also before my Luxman purchase. But the bad vibes I was reading about in concern of their customer service issues deflated that idea...
it's not cheap, Project RS2T transport (red book only) and then add a linear power supply, with upgraded power cable. Put it against anything out there, BAR NONE. Of course a good DAC is necessary to complete the package. Robert TN
Man, I am really SICK AND TIRED of people doing everything but answering the question. dvdgreco asked about CD players and a bunch of you come telling him/her to go into streaming. It's ABOUT CD PLAYERS. Stick to the topic. You're not getting a commission so stop being a know-it-all. Sheesh.
p.s. - very happy with my Bryston BCD-3, but there are definitely quality control issues with my unit. Tray errors often.
I also would recommend CD upgrades available from LCAudio in Denmark if you can get someone to do them. Class A stage output (to bypass opamps) and a good clock.
