Best CD Player - Opinions?

You know what Iam going to say. Levinson 39 and then upgrade it to the 390 which will blow your socks off. I spoke to a person who matched the new levinson 390 to the krell kps 28c and said the levinson was smoother more textured and layered sounding compared to the krell. In my opinion Levinson makes the best digital gear out there but there are other companys that do a good job. Good Luck. Also THE 39 WILL SMOOTH YOUR SYSTEM OUT, IT WILL REMOVE SOME OF THE ROUGH EDGES

Supermighty, do you currently own the Wadia 850, or your looking to get it. If you own it, you dont need to upgrade. That is an awesome CD Player.

I strongly agree with Brauser. The CD-2 had great reviews and sounds wonderful. It made me re-think that my attitude about my turntable. It is quite a bargain as a used CDP.

Twilo,
I currently own the Wadia 850. It's a typo in my original message - I ment to say I was considering upgrading to a Wadia 861.

I am leaning toward keeping the Wadia 850 and getting the reference upgrade through Great Northern Sounds. The feedback on their work with the 850 is great. Anyone who has any feedback on that please let me know

Thanks,
SuperMighty

Get the upgrade from great Nothern Sound. Steve was a designer for Wadia. Another great Wadia CD Player was the 16. This was the CD Player the Wadia 850 and 860 replaced.
