Good CD Player for UR Unico

you might want to give the rega planet a listen. You might be surprised. Also, I think you can find the jupiter in your price range every now and again.

I am using the Unico with a Music Hall Maverick CD/SACD player. I picked up the player on Audiogon for $1000. New they list for $1500. It is a great Redbook CD player, and has upsampling which I find really adds width and depth to the soundstage. SACD I find really depends on the discs, some do not sound any better than CDs. I also find that not all CDRs will be read by the Maverick. All in all - I think they are very well matched pair. 6Moons has reviewed both of these units that have been modified and raved about both!

I also use the Jolida player and it is fantastic with my Unico. I haven't even tried different tubes yet!

I have used the Jolida JD-100 with NOS Mullard 12AX7 (CV4004) tubes and an aftermarket powercord... also drop some NOS Mullard 12AU7's (CV4003?) into your Unico... the combination was quite stunning for the price point!
