Attn Vinyl lovers - what CD Player do you use?


While reading through the many threads on Vinyl vs. CD, I thought it might be interesting to see what CD transports/players Vinyl fans use when not listening to their analog rig?

My CD system is a PS Audio Perfectwave DAC and Perfectwave Transport although I mostly use the DAC for playing Hi Res audio files off the PC. It's pretty good and I use it alot for new jazz but I still much prefer my analog system when it comes to pre-digital era jazz.

My vinyl system is a Transrotor Fat Bob with the TMD magnetic bearing so there is no mechanical conection between the drive and the platter - extremely quiet. Cartridge is a ZYX Airy3 and tonearm is a Graham Phantom Supreme
I don't use any CD anymore. Who would when you can get high res streaming digital into a DAC like the PS Audio Directstream digital from Tidal or lots of other vendors who provide High Res. For $20 a month (less than the cost of one CD) you can stream albums to your hears delight. CD's are so yesterday.
Of course I still love and listen to my 2000 jazz LP's from the 50's and 60's. Nothing can replace these.
