@toronto416 - I wouldn’t say it’s “crazy” to use the Luxman as a transport, but you might end up driving yourself crazy comparing the Luxman to the Chord. That’s fine if you enjoy it, but for me, it’s a distraction to be switching back and forth. But who knows, you may end up selling the Chord. As for transports, there are several lengthy threads if you do a search. I have a. CEC TL5 and like it, but I haven’t compared it with any other similarly-priced options.
A good cd transport for my Chord HugoTT2 DAC with Chord M-Scaler
I recently acquired a Luxman L-595A integrated amp and moved my trusty L-509u to my second system along with my Simaudio Moon 260d cd transport. I need a new cd transport (or player used as a transport) to go with my Chord Hugo TT2 DAC and Chord M-Scaler.
I was considering the PS Audio SACD transport, but most of my CDs are Red Book and I own a very small number of SACDs.
I love the build quality of Luxman products. Would it be crazy to use a Luxman D-03x CDP as a transport? It is about 2/3 of the price of the PS Audio SACD transport.
