A Low Cost Pleasant Sounding Used CD Player?

My ancient Linn Majik CD player has recently died. I only play a CD maybe once or twice a month, though I do have hundreds of them.

Any recommendations for an inexpensive good sounding replacement player? Thank you in advance...

I bought an new Open Box unit about a year ago, best $400 I've spent on audio in years. Like you, I don't play CD's often, but when I do I want good sound. The CXC checked all the boxes. Happy shopping.
