6000 dollars CD player

I like Pro-Ject DS2 T CD Transport. Top load (less to wear out) and one the most recent designs.

IMO the recommendations above are average sounding.  The Electro is a great player but on the warm side, Sim is good, Rega OK, Pro-Ject nice but there are better options for you. I would rather you get a good transport with a better dac if you can use a 2 box solution.

Happy Listening.

Cdp Why?  far more distortion then a top quality dac. the platter wobbles no matter how good it is the error  correction has to work over time 
Buy a Denafrips terminator + for  $6500 no player  can approach this ,everything  is through a hard drive or high Rez streaming .
if you have money to spend extra and want a cdp  it it can be very good 
but not in the same league ,you can spend up to $100k on digital 
that in many ways surpass even the best turntables in many areas 
S/n, THD,  true 20 bit resolution , turntable 12.5 bits max ,much lower defined Bass. Cd even with  DSD inferior in absolute terms. I am just making an observation.

May want to take a look at Jays Audio CDT2-MkII. A friend runs one, sounds very nice in his system 

Best,

Just a guess, he/she probably has a large CD collection and doesn't feel like ripping for hours or paying $19.99 a month to hear it.
