I use an unassuming Denon DVD-1600 as my main playback for CDs with the NAD 7140 Reciever. It's got a nice Faroudja FL2200 video processor but no HDMI output as it was released in 2003. So it's limited in usefulness as a DVD player, however the Burr Brown 1792 DACs sound pleasant, they give a warmth to CD music reproduction. I also like that it's got larget control buttons right on the front, you dont need a video screen to navigate it's use.

They come in Chocolate Black and also Champagne Silver. Note the exellent large control buttons.
