good quality multi-disc CDP?

I have an Emotiva ERC-1 CDP whic I like a lot. It's been my first entry into quality audio, and step up from "box store" electronics.
The audio quality is definitely excellent, IMO, certainly I'm happy with it.
The only thing is I really miss having a multi-disc player. I find it inconvenient to have to replace the CD after each play.

Can anyone suggest a good quality multi-disk CDP, or even transport? Something like 5-6 discs would be fine. I'm looking for high quality but, don't necessarily need reference quality.

Any suggestions out there? Budget is $500, or thereabouts.

Thx,
Rob

Nakamichi Music Bank, there is a MB1 for sale now on here, saw 1 come up a couple weeks ago too. It can be used as a single or multi. Ebay usualy has a few at any givin time.

A quality dac with the Sony mentioned above should do it. There is a Bel Canto DAC2 being auctioned now. Not sure of the seller but that is a very sweet dac and will probably go at a reasonable price.

I use a couple of pioneer 300 disc changers run into a levinson dac ( # 360S .) The sound is close to my single disc player , but I don't have to handle discs and they will play all day without help . If you are having friends over for an evenings entertainment you can pre program the hole evenings music , or use random and here music you forgot about . Also if you want to use your single disc player its quick access to find and switch CDs , never have to handle a CD case . I find it much better than music on my hard storage ,and no moniter required

OK .. I'm a bit discouraged and am thinking that maybe it's the right time to invest in a digital music server. The thing is, I want a basic, easy to use system that is not "overkill" with features. High quality 2-ch audio is what I want. I don't want to build my own from a pcs or Mac-mini.
Advice or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thx,
Rob

Hi Rob

How about the Adcom GCD-700 CDP? I've read about many users who have praised the sound of this player. It is an older model but a good one. It can be found time to time here on A'gon for way below your budget.
