Digital Player Upgrade Options

I have been using the Bryston BDP-1 since 2011 and have been pleased with the sound quality but it is a little slow and lacks features I may enjoy.  Now I am looking to upgrade. The Bryston BDP-3 is certainly an option but I would like to get to know about other digital players that I should look at. I generally buy used components so I am looking for digital players costing ~$1600 to ~$2600 in the used market.

Actually, the BDP-1 is a digital player, playing music files from external drives but it does not stream. The later models (BDP-2 & 3) do have streaming capability. The Bryston BDA is the DAC and their BCD is a CD transport/player.

I can upgrade to Bryston's BDP-3 but wanted consider other well regarded Music Servers before doing that.

Sorry, I was confusing it with the CD player.

I used to use a BDP-1 as a Roon endpoint and thought it worked quite well while working around the kludgy and very dated Bryston control program
