pick me a cd player please-3k to 4k budget

The Krell SACD Standard offers Reference quality CD sound + SACD playback. Last month's TAS article left no doubt that this is a very high quality CD Player that will also play SACDs. If you listen to Jazz & Classical, you'll be able to appreciate the benefits of SACD. The build quality and looks of this Player are first-rate, take it from one very happy owner!

at that Price range its unbeatable - had mine for over 6 months and its just stunning - just keeeps getting better!!!! Sold my Electrocomapniet for it!!!!

thks for ideas all,i went with a RA Opus 21 Ref. mod by GNSC.that should be ok for my little system.Steve's gave me a good deal..thks

Hifijunkeoz...which cd player are you talking about? The Droplet?

I have one of those as well, 2bigears. I think you'll enjoy it. A very smooth ,relaxed presentation.
Good choice.
