CD player problems

I've got a Simaudio 260D CD player that now works intermittently. The cd drawer more often that not does not open. So I'm sending it back to the manufacturer for repair.

But say I want to get another cd spinner- what is a very solid recommendation? I want a digital out jack (BNC would be fantastic) and XLR out isn't needed. I've had some very good CD players- CAL, Meridian, Rega and now the Sim. This is my first transport failure.

Thanks in advance!

REGA ISIS or REGA ISIS VALVE (PREFERRED)

it also has a remote control feature for the USB direct input into its high-end DAC for an external HD so you can also play your digital collection

highly recommended Goliath Killer...Google the reviews.

PS REGA has two (2) additional transports with identical serial numbers set aside just for that particular unit as a hedge against repair requirements. They were all constructed at the same time ....you will be drooling on your pillow in a nursing home before you need to worry.

With respect to Akg, at the price if the very good Rega Isis, I would simply do a music server such as the Naim Uniti. Have you considered the Rega Saturn as a transport? It is quite good.

Zavato-

how old is your Simaudio spinner? Did you buy it new?
Have you contacted Simaudio about a replacement?

Keep me posted and Happy Listening!
