I have Denon DCD-3520 I got ina thrift store for $20. I use its digital output to connect to a full Audio Alchemy system--powered 75/110 ohm transmitter/receiver cable to a Pro 32 DTI with AD upgrades to a modded DDEV3.0 D/A, using a Power Station 2 and 3, and then finally, to a DLC line controller.
I still like this old CD player; it's built like a tank and has a good ergonomica feel.
