CD players in $2K range with balanced output


Whats out there in the market in that range, preferably new only, rather skeptical of buying a used source. From my understanding there is not much to choose from in that range.

thanks for the input

Mac MCD205...used. Can't go wrong. You can find them around $1500.

Better yet, buy a used Mac MVP851 for right in the $2k range.
I agree with the McIntosh but if you want new only, they will be out of your price range. See if you can find a Classe CDp-10 - there should still be some new ones around although I think it is officially discontinued. Good luck!
Cairn Fog v.2 with the 'soft' 24/192 upsampling chip can be bought new for $1695, maybe even less? This has balanced (and unbalanced) outputs.
