Favorite CD player around $2k or less used

I'm getting itchy finger on Audiogon regarding cd player. I love my Cary 303/200 but am toying with going for something tubey for a while, just for fun (Cary 308T?). So I thought I'd raise this question, again just for fun: what's been your experience recently with cd players that sell used for under $2k? (I like HDCD but not a show-stopper; SACD big plus, perhaps not realistic.).

I have a TRL modded Sony 595 that cost me $650 that I really like. You should check out their latest and greatest which I think goes for around $2000 and has a seperate power supply. Do a search on Audiogon for numerous threads on TRL stuff.

Richard has a great point there- my Exemplar also sits on a Neuance platform, and performs much better that way. May want to factor that into any buying decision :)

and would probably have to spend three times that ($2K) amount in order to hear any significant improvent.
