musical cd player 1-2K range??

I have had the Lector 0.6 in my system for the past 3 years. After changing the 12at7 tubes for some RCA black plates or Telefunkens this is an amazingly musical player. It competes well with my analog front end at 1/3 the price. The controls on the faceplate are minimal and the remote is necessary (I control mine with a Logitech 1100). Recently tried a set of Psvane 12at7 tubes and these brought a different tone to the player that was open and detailed. My personal favorite is when I use my set of Mullard 10m in it. The Lector is an excellent choice that you can taylor to your system with it's responsiveness to different tubes, and the tubes are not just cathode followers. They are the amplifiers (no op amps).

I do not know why my original answer posted twice, but no I have not had to opportunity to hear the Audio Aero Prima MkII or any player in that line to be able to give any comparison.

lectors don't come up too often used....
