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.

I went from 260D to Jay's cdt2mklll. 

I don't know whether this is  technically accurate way to describe the difference I heard but it sounded like the Jay's simply gleaned more data from the disc. The difference was not subtle.

I'd be sorely tempted (pun intended) to acquire the cdt3mklll were it not for my aging back (it weighs 50 lbs).
