One-box 1x Oversampling CD Player

I've been thinking about a change of CD player and am really interested in the 1x oversampling DA conversion as implemented by Audio Note and a few others who have jumped on the same bandwagon (i.e. Audio Mirror, AudioZone, Scott Nixon, Red Wine Audio, Ack, etc.). However, as far as I have been able to ascertain, no one is currently making a one-box player with 1x oversampling conversion. I would be grateful if someone could correct that finding.

I'm aware of players that do not have upsampling such as Primare, Atoll, Audio Refinement, but I'm not sure that they fall within the category of 1x oversampling. Any thoughts?

Thanks.

Thanks for the responses so far!

Gmood1, I'm still using the Anthem CD-1 with upgrades, including SuperClock. I would prefer to stick with a one-box player, but if I go with separates the Shigaraki DAC would be on my shortlist of non-oversampling units (forgot to mention it in my first post).

I did a search and finally found one site with the Consonance 2.2 CD Linear and CD120 Linear Players. Looks like they make two players that have this feature.
Not sure how they would compare to the stand alone Dac though.IME the Transport/Dac seem to have the edge.

Good luck with the hunt
