What compact CD player for NAD D3020 V2?

[Erdonius]

Hello, I am looking for a affortable (and preferably compact) CD player for my HIFI set. I have a NAD D3020 V2 with a pair of Q Acoustics 3020. I really like this set-up for a lower budget and want to expand the set.
Does anyone have suggestions for a CD player? Thanks in advance!

Welcome to the forum
Your amp has an inbuilt DAC does it not?
Try a CD transport rather than a player.
What's your budget?

Thanks. Yes, the NAD has a Build in DAC. I was doping to spend around €200.

Unfortunately most CDPs come in a standard size at this price point unless you can look at the second hand market.

Thanks, for what budget do you get a compact CD transporter/player? And which devices do jou recommend?

I guess it's what you mean by compact. Their are those that are half-width like the Denon DCD-50 but this is nearly £300.
Pro-ject did the CD Box DS2 which you might find second hand, likewise the Musical Fidelity M1 CDT

Or, unless you have a ton of CDs with rare/niche music, you could get a Google Chromecast Audio and a Tidal subscription, and connect with optical cable to the Nad's DAC.
