What's a good CD player new/used for around $600.00 or less? I have a pair of Revel M-20's, driven by a Plinius 8200 integrated amp. I listen to everything from classical to rock. I've considered the Rega Planet. Any ideas? Thank you all in advance.
I have not heard the Planet 2000 but I'm always amazed how well my original Planet holds its own when compared against other (pricier) units I've tried.
Don't ignore auditioning any of the Arcam Alpha series of CD players, if you get a chance. I think they are as musical as the Rega models, but with slightly more detail, and slightly more control in the bass. You should be able to pick up a few of the models for less than $600 used.
If you can find an Arcam Alpha 9 for that money, or hopefully less, it may be a very nice match-up. This player has the Ring DAC thats in the current offerings from Arcam (CD 92 and FMJ CD23) and does a great job of getting you all the info in quite a musical presentation.
