A reasonably priced CD player with volume control

I'd like to connect a CD player directly, without a preamp, to my Carver power amp to drive Magnepan speakers. Hence a convenient way of controlling the volume would be a must. I listen almost exclusively to classical music, mainly orchestral and piano. Suggestions and recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Any of the 6922/6DJ8 tube output Dynaco machines are a decent choice.

You could argue they being long in the tooth, but occasionally, you'll come across one NIB. Also, despite their age, I find these Japanese manufactured machines hold up far, far better than Chinese players of more recent vintage.

The Quad CDP is another player to consider. Though I've heard good things about it, I've not listened to the player myself.
