Need a new CD/SACD player. Am wondering if anyone here owns the CD-S2100, CD-S2000 or CD-S1000 and what do you think?
Thanks.

I own a CD-S2000 and it is a great stereo CD player. I use it mostly to play SACDs and it does this job quite well. I tend to prefer the sound of my Audio-gd DAC when playing normal CDs but the internal Yamaha DAC also has a very good sound.

At new price levels (I bought mine used) I would probably go for an Oppo instead.
 
Thanks. The best I've found is a 'factory reburbished' (doesn't give me much confidence finding all these Yamaha refurbished units) for $1500 and new for $2000. or a CD-S1000 for $1000 refurbished or $1300 new. They even offer a refurbished CD-S3000 for something like $3500.

So, I purchased a local Marantz CD8004 for $650. They get good reviews for build quality and, especially, sonics. Believe that they are actually made in Japan, which is rare these days. Fingers crossed.
