CD-player for $1100 - Can I do any better?

I was looking to upgrade my CD-player and my budget is limited to $1100.

So far, researching, I found out three players that worth considering:
- Marantz SA-17 S1
- Arcam CD23
- Unison Research Unico

Can I do any better for $1100? Cary 308T for instance?

"I listened to the SB2s as modified by Red Wine Audio and Bolder Cable. Analog to DAC"

Clio09, if you did listen to both of the moded units as a digital feed to an external DAC can you give me your impression as to which you preferred, and why? If you think we're getting too far OT please respond via email.

I've been breaking in the upsampler on mine and am really starting to like it.

Oops. I didn't post it correctly. I was suggesting you consider the Tjoeb CD player. I'm currently breaking in the upsampler and starting to enjoy the player even more.
