What's best CD player one piece price no object

Wait. Keith Johnson and the boys at Spectral feel at this time that the chipsets available for SACD or DVD-A are inferior for incorporation into a source component. Forget
about tubes for a source, their low level resolution will not be on par with ANY Spectral product you currently own.
Just wait and listen to the SDR 4000 and see if that is what you want. Then go on. By the way which Spectral amp/preamp combo do you have???

Anytime Spectral brings out a new product I get excited. This is a player I must hear. I know how hard it is to wait, but even though I have not heard the new Spectral CDP, I wouldn't be surprised if it ranks with the best players on the market. I may eat my words, but I doubt it.
Please be patient Mr. Kocsis. I think you may have picked a winner. Best to you in your hunt.

Second the Accuphase DP75V. I've had or heard many of the above. The Accuphase is in another league. NO other digital that I've heard in the used price range ($5000) gives you the spacial information of the Accuphase. It is the only digital product that nullified the use of my Tact 2.2X, because it is that resolving and doesn't need room correction to make spacial cues on redbook CDs audible. The difference is the use of multiple ladder DACs. You could make an entire production run of CD players from most small companies with the DACs that are in the DP75V. It also has a great analog volume control that bests every pre-amp I've had going straight in to the amp EXCEPT the Silver Rock. The build quality is far superior to anything mentioned here. They are a bargain because Sony quit producing the transport mechanism, so Accuphase had to discontinue them this year. It is still the best redbook CD player they make.

What does it mean that there is so little agreement? Hearing is believing.
