Best transport for $500.ooish


Hey my DVD player died today as we started to play some christmas music . I have been using this for a couple years and pushed off the buying a real transport as I have bought other pieces for my system. So need to find a transport/cd player in the $500ish price range . I have Maggies and an older Theta DA I am using so looking for something pretty neutral to warm sounding. Thanks for your thought!!!

Many Oppo players used at RMAF as transports and some as sources.
Most computers have very poor soundcards but some modded ones were also used as transports and sources at RMAF.
If you have an Ipod you could also go the Wadia iTransport direction and incorporate it with a nice DAC.
Cd players or ipods won't have the virus or data stream problems that a computer based system could have. This also keeps your music system and computer separate.
