CD players with volume control ?????


I'm considering a Wadia 830 used to add to my 2 channel system. My only source is CD. I have a Krell KAV 250a with a NAD c160 pre-amp, and an old Phillips CD player hooked up to B&W N805s. I want to eliminate my pre-amp and upgrade my CD, I'm thinking that the Wadia is the way to do it, any thoughts? Are there any other CD players with volume control that allow you to eliminate the pre-amp?

Thanks!

Well common use of a CDROM is one of the reason they chose it, they dont have to worry about the drive becoming obsolete and not finding replacement parts for their CD players. And I do believe they have changed the CD drive to eliminate the whine. However, the whine is very quiet, and it is difficult to hear at all from 10 feet away.
The drive whine was in older models over a year ago. The new one is dead silent. Can't even hear it when your ear is close.
Yep, I purchased my Opus in May 03 and was told by the Resolution Audio guys that the previous CDRom Drive is now a DVD drive. I'm not sure why they chose it, but it is dead silent, as Platsolos indicated, with extremely fast track access. Also, the speed of volume increase/decrease has been increased quite bit over previous models. If you have the dough, this is a great player! You can't go wrong!
Thanks for all the responses! The Opus was my consensus choice here, but unfortunately out of my budget at this time. I chose to go with a pair of EVS nude attenuators from www.tweakaudio.com in place of a cdp with volume control. Thanks again.
Check out the European made Lektor iv by Ancient Audio. CD2 PRO Transport , tube output stage , volume control in the analog domain , optional analog inputs, solid granite chassis and the most natural sound you've ever heard from cd's and extra cool too look at. I am the distributor so I'm biased but at least check it out at www.ancient.com.pl
