the best CD player between 6'000 - 10'000 $ ?

I'll throw the Denons modified by Exemplar and APL into the mix to consider.

I would recommend listening to the:

Ayre C-5xe
Krell SACD Standard MK3
Esoteric SA-60

All 3 retail for around $6K, all 3 play both CD & SACDs, and all 3 sounded amazing in my System - as good as is needed - sonically close enough to $10K plus Machines for price not to be an issue. I personally went with the Krell to front my $32K rig.

Karelfd,

at the moment in Bangkok but living mainly in Europe

PS amazing high-end scene here in BKK

The Playback Designs MPS-5 fill all your needs. There are reviews here on A'gon and Positive Feedback just published a review.
