The Audiolab does the snappy sound.
Densen B400 xs if you can find one; absolutely no contest with anything else.
Seconded for the Audiolab 8200CD or CDQ. I have an early one and it is fabulous.
depends what you like.
NB
how about a nice transport and the majority on a DAC ? - for when / if you ever do go down the computer route.
Densen B400 XS NO CONTEST AT ALL!!!! And at less than £900.00 now is exceptional value. Steve.
If you can find one.
