CD player recommendations under $2K used

There is a Resolution Audio Opus 21 listed currently for $2000. That is the lowest price I recall ever seeing for that model. It is a very good CD player and RA provides excellent customer service.

I have not yet heard the new Bryston player.....

Enjoy,

Hi Scott,

I'll bet that VAC/ ML rig sounds great! I'm a big fan of both. For digital, I'd investigate Reubent's RA Opus 21 reco, sounds like a great deal to me. Another reco would be a Marantz SA-11S1 or if you can find one at your price a SA-11S2, these Marantz's get you SACD capability too.

To be perfectly honest though, with your VAC/ML combo, I'd look to spend my $2K on a vinyl rig first. Digital has come a long way, but is still flatter and less fleshed out than vinyl, IMHO.

Happy hunting,
John

Another option to consider is the Modwright Sony 999ES Platinum version. I would make sure it has the tube rectified power supply though. It makes a huge difference. Theirs one for sale on here for for ~$1500.

Good luck
