What is the best analog sounding CD player $2000


What is the best (analog) sounding player under $2000? How about under $1000? New or used OK. Straight out of the box - no mods.

Tbg,
Can you give more details about the servers and Dacs that you have heard in this price range? For a one box player the Lector Mk3 is excellent. I like it far better than my former AMR.
No Chris you're actually on to something. Try listening to master reel-to-reel tapes on a decent tape deck. It will make you forget about LPs. Some consider this format to be the status quo in analog sound. Also, don't forget about DAT which I might consider the best of both worlds. I've been listening more to my DAT masters of late than my LPs.

Otherwise I think Mr. Tennis has done a good job of describing what one means when they refer to analog sound.
Baranyi, I can well expect that the Lector outperforms the AMR. I did not mean to say that I know of quality servers in the price range. In the range of the AMR, yes. I heard the new Sonic Studio/VRS Amarra at THE Show for one.
Here's my two cents....The Rotel RCD-1072, at $700.00, is an incredibly musical, analog sounding player. If your budget is $2000.00, buy the Rotel, and with the extra $1300, buy a Rega P3-24 turntable/Exact 2 cartridge combination. Then, start enjoying truly beautiful analog sound. Good Luck, and Happy Listening !!!
The more I listen to the Electrocompaniet ECM 1UP, the more I really love it's analog sound. Used in the $2000 area. Worth an audition.I'm no longer looking at cd players whatsoever after a long search.
