CD TRANSPORT THAT MAKES AN AUDIBLE DIFFERENCE

My ps audio transport drawer stopped functioning, and didn’t think it was worth the shipping and repair costs.  Had stored all of my cds to roon core and subscribed to the principle that digital coming off solid state medium rather from a spinning disc was inherently superior.  Bought the project r2 transport special from underwood.  Without hyperbole, found the music superior to my network/streaming to the dac.  The transport came a day earlier than the digital rca, had an old mit 350 rca cable.  Even better than the digital cable

I am using qobuz.  Sonore ultra rendu as a roon player via usb to audio gd r7 

I do find the project to be “picky”with disc quality.   CDs that were kept on my car visor organizer have occasional skips.   The sq on Red book is not incremental.  
my wife was a technician for Bosendorfer in Japan, came to the listening room and what I bought from the Tampa audio show and how much I spent.   She has gotten used to the idea that 875 dollars is a value purchase 

Pretty happy with  the vintage spectral mit interconnect. Blows away the Diamond level ic purchased with the transport.  Next consideration is the value of upgrading power supplying 

Which one?

Had a distribution from my company, and ordered the Nicola power supply.  The LTA costs more than the CD transport.   I’m not a fan of the top loading system, almost as consuming as an lp, yet it was the drawer mechanisms on my Theta and PS audio transports that failed
