In Reply to: Suggestions for a redbook CD player $800-$2000? posted by mbnx01 on March 26, 2022 at 11:46:52:
Might you want to rip your CDs and store them on hard drives - either now in the future when you can't be arsed to get up and change the CD every hour?
If this is a likelihood, you could consider a CD player than can play or rip CDs onto its built-in twin hard drives. These are rare beasts but the NAD M50.2 offers all this and a streamer too. It doesn't include a DAC, but will take digital inputs (coax and Toslink), an analogue input and it outputs via AES/EBU, coax or Toslink.
I keep all my 1500 CDs stored in FLAC format, but I can still play the original CDs, or friends' CDs that I don't wish to rip first.
It's outside your budget if bought new, but it offers so much more than a simple CDP, you may consider it worth looking into. It shows the ripped CD's artwork on its front panel LED screen, or onto your TV via HDMI.
