Best CD player under $500 used?

My NAD 5000 has started to have a problem skipping and with tracking. I am searching for a best replacement, used, and under $500
Thanks

It has 24/96 Burr-Brown D/A chip, HDCD, remote, digital out, etc. and sounds great IMHO.

Very good redbook playback and also has HDCD to boot (which sounds wonderful). Turn it up a notch with the addition of an aftermarket PC. Bamm!

Might cost alittle more ,but it will also give the performance of a $3000+ machine.
