Musical cd plyer under 1k


I currently own a Jolida 100cdp, and trying determine if there is a more musical cd plyer which could be had for <1k used or new.

By musical, I mean natural, live, 3-d sounding. I am not looking for the audiphile anaytical bright sounding type.

Bought my Resolution Audio CD50 about 8 years ago and went through a phase of trying to improve upon it with newer technology. The Jolida 100 was one of the cdps that briefly went through the test along with at least ten other players at various times.
None of them matched the musicality of the CD50. It is an older player built to a very high standard with an exceptional analog section. I stopped looking for a better player and bought an extra laser assy in case mine goes out.
a gently used Raysonic CD-128. Check out the 6moons review below ...

I'd second Naim (CD5, CD5i, CD5x) -- with the caveat that they don't do 3-D imaging. Very natural and organic sounding players, though.
I'd third the NAD. NAD is really awesome gear on a budget and they rarely if even have to go in for repair. The easiest days of audio for me were the NAD days.
