Best CD Transport in 1K Ball Park


I'm currently in the market for a CD Transport in the 1K ball park. I was thinking about CAL Delta but heard they were being discontinued. Are there any suggestions or thoughts on any particular Manufacturer or Model I should demo?

P.S. The unit must have a AES/EBU output.

I've seen several Wadia transports hitting the market at bargain prices...and have discussed this with several knowlegeable people. Consider picking up a Wadia WT-3200 for about $700 and you'll have about 85 - 90% of the performance you would get from a new Wadia 270.

My price range was a bit higher than 1K, so I recently purchased a Wadia WT-2000 based on the Teac P2 transport. The unit has been extensively tweaked and modified by Great Northern Sound and should arrive today. I'll let you know how it sounds!!
