Best hands down Pro-Ject Audio

Then Audiomeca Mephisto II

Next Metronome T1A & AL2 CD Transport & Power Supply

Then CEC TL-2

This is an impressive list of very high quality excellent CD transports. Could not go wrong with anyone of these. I can report that based upon direct listening experience the Pro-Ject Audio RS2T sound quality/music reproduction  is outstanding!

Granted its cost is more than many other transports mentioned thus far within this tread. Due to the superb performance it yields, the price is very reasonable and fair.

A further mention of Esoteric. The only pure transport Esoteric now make is the Grandioso, now with the Atlas transport mechanism which replaces the previous VRDS Neo. Unfortunately Esoteric no longer supply OEM transports which means that companies like DCS have had to go elsewhere.

MBL 1621A Transport - makes well recorded CDs sound almost like Vinyl. A  superlative build.

Project rs2 top loader no shakey draw or wobble. Fixed spindle with puck. Can connect 1s2 (hdmi) into certain DACs like the rs2 DAC and reclocks ..... Truly superb and betters my Rega Rp8 Apheta often ... Annoying as it shouldn't
