Old guy needs recommendation request for old CD players / DAC

Think I’ll hold on to the California Audio Lab CD

player

to be honest the loudness level of the bilateral tinnitus is so high that any improvement in audio quality is not even noticeable!

now my audio gear is more of a tinnitus masker than a source of acoustic enjoyment. 

I had a bunch of  v high end separates ( Boulder , Quad, McIntosh, Belles, AR, etc etc )!that are all gone because of the tinnitus!

All tube gear gone too!

I would like a new integrated amp and trade the Rotel A-14 but not sure if it would matter?????

any integrated amp suggestions?

When I read the OP's request for an "old CD player" for an "old guy" I was motivated to do a Google search.  Using the key words:  "CD player", "very large buttons", "large, bright display", "oversized door (for "error correction" when sloppily placing CDs in the tray -- perhaps even have a feature that flips the CD over when placed in the draw upside down?", and response above 4k optional (we can't hear above that frequency), I was directed to the Fisher Price website.

But, seriously, I think the old Sonys were wonderful players, and for "newer old players" the Marantz CD80005 is one of my favorites.

But, I did get a chuckle to OPPO being referenced as an "old player".  This would be like a first generation Tesla referred to as a "vintage automobile."  Guess I'm showing my age here?

Glad to see so many positive comments about the old Sony CD players. At the suggestion of a friend I recently picked up a Sony SCD-777ES player and have been amazed at the beauty of the sound, even red book CDs.

A used Esoteric cd1  is a great CD player and uses no’s Multibit dacs ,

polder Accuphase is another used gem.

Definitely keep that Cal Icon II.

Great old player, very well built!
