I also have an EAD Signature pre/pro. Get a transport that has Glass ST fiber output from Wadia or Levinson. The Spectral, Sonic Frontiers T3, Krell KPS 20T and Wadia 270 are excellent CD transport but they work better with their own DAC's to take advantage of seperate clock and data lines feature which is not available on the EAD. The SFT1, PS Audio and Theat Basic are also very good transport but replacement transport is very hard to find since Philips stopped making it a few years ago. I have a Wadia 850 and connect it directly to the amps via balanced outputs.
CD Transport for the next 10 years.....
I'm in process of buying used transport which expected to be used for the next 10 years to come. My short list compose of Sonic Frontiers SFT-1, Wadia 20, and Krell KAV-250cd. Sonic Frontiers cost about 50% of Wadia and cost about 85% of Krell. Which one would you recommend ?
Associate gears are EAD Signature Pre/Proc, Jeff Rowland 5 amp, and B&W 802 S3 speaker. My music preference are Smooth Jazz and Acoustic Jazz especially acoustic guitar, piano, and saxophone.
Thanks in advance.
