I use a Sony 333es changer as a transport (with Dan Wright mods) feeding the Perpetual Tech boxes. The Sony as a transport is the equal of any transport I have had in my system including Sonic Frontiers SFT-1, Audio Research CDT-1, Muse Model 5, etc. My experience with transports has been that differences are marked by quality ranges i.e. up to say $2500 msrp they all sound pretty much the same. This is just MY experience. To improve you would need to step way up in quality to the $5,000 to $10,000 msrp range.
I think you can find a perfectly good changer as a transport for not a whole lot of money. Look at the Sony's and you can get SACD thrown in.
