CD Player/Transport Recommendation?


Hi all,
I'm looking for a used player/transport for my Krell HTS/KAV-1500/Thiel 3.6 theater/stereo system. I'm currently using a Rotel 965BX as a transport into the HTS digital, but I consider the Rotel to be the weak link. I'm considering the analog bypass option on the HTS when it becomes available. How much would I gain with a better player? or transport? or player with analog volume directly into the amp and forget the bypass? I live about 5 hours from the big city, so I don't get to audition much equipment. Any suggestions and/or equipment recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I agree with tacs. Probably best to use a DVD transport or player if you are planning on havoing one system for Ht and Audio. However, there are some audible improvements to be had with a better quality transport. Couple of suggestions, Theta carmen or david transports available used for $1200-$2500. They would match well with your Krells digital inputs. Good luck with your search.
