CD player with volume control

I am putting together a system for a friend. I have purchased a Aloia 13.01i amp and now am looking for a
CD/pre-amp combination. I have a budget of $2,000.00.
Speakers are still up in the air, but I am leaning towards Silverline.
All responses appreciated

2 suggestions:
1-make sure it has a good d/a. Most cd's with volume/variable outputs only work with the built in d/a.
2-You want a good volume control. Too many (ie marantz)have only 8-12 step volumes. You need something with infinite control.
Also, make sure they have volume on the remote!

I agree with Sc53 that is a great player at a good price(used) another potential choice that is slightly more up to date is the Audio Aero Prima- talk to Warrenh and he will make you a believer! heh heh, its not quite the capitole mkII but its pretty good.
