T: Please look into putting all of your music on a hard drive connected to a dac. I sold my $6,000 CDP, went to a music server/dac system, and never looked back. The current setup in my system is a Mac Mini with all music ripped in AIFF. I'm running firewire into a Weiss Minerva. I control playback and browsing with an itouch remote. The convenience factor alone should be reason enough. Ok, the Minerva is a little expensive, but there are MANY dacs out there that will give you superior sound than a standalone cdp. Look into getting the PS Audio DAC III with Stage 4 Cullen Mod. I just sold one. It was amazing, especially for the price.
Don't waste your money on a cdp. Just my 2 cents.
Have fun!
