Thank you all for the input.  

Basically, I just need a CD player to play my legacy CDs on my Beoplay A6 speakers.  I would like something that looks nice and is known for reliably and a pleasant sound.  I can live with a single player, but multi disc does make life easier.  

As to my hifi background...   about ten years ago I had sudden serious hearing loss in the high frequencies.  Made me so depressed I stopped listening to music.  It just wasn't the same anymore.  So now I'm trying to get back into it, but I realize the biggest issue I will have with the quality if the sound will be my high frequencies limitations.

Beogram CD3500/4500/6500/7000 has an coax digital out, if you buy a digitial -> analog converter, not expensive, you can connect the cd player directly to the line in on the A6, off course you have no remote control of the cd player, but at least you can listen to cd's and control the volume from the App.

If you need to control the cd-player you need to connect it to NetworkLink via the NL converter.

I vote for Beocenter 2. Beautiful classic design, either on the wall or sitting on the sideboard.

And you would have radio and DAB too (if needed).

Given the age of those equipments, for remote control you'd also need a Beomaster and an MCL/ML converter!

You are correct, totally forgot that :)

zenon seems to be aiming for a standalone cd-player.

I'd go for the good old CDX.

Has analog out - just plug it in.
