The Pass Labs DAC 1 is very fine. The Linn players, even the cheaper ones, have tremendous bounce, pace and rhythm. Friends tell me the EMC-1-etc. is very fine. I recently bought the MUSE Model 10 after much searching. It is simply stunning and the best I have ever heard.

There are so many "best for the money" listed - it seems that a lot of players sound real good. On the topic, you might want to check out Richard Hardesty's Journal on some of the top players today.
