Advice on sub-$500.00 cd player.

Hey Guys, now that my son hooked me up with a PS3 for Christmas(for blu-ray primarily), I'm entertaining a dedicated cd player and moving my Yamaha universal player. I'd like to stay under $500.00 and am soliciting ideas and input. With a collection of 700+ cd's, I'll be playing the silver disks for sometime.
Thanks!

The highest end NAD can be purchased for about that and is a great product. Excellent quality. I think it would blow away the Rotel. I've never liked thbe Camb Audio products' sound.

Music Hall sells one for 600 usd but I would think you'd like the NAD as much if not more.

It does has a "optical digital output". Is this what you are referring to?
