CD transports; do they really matter


In my pursuit of total sonic harmony, I have been investigating whether a CD transport ( to replace my bulky and aged Luxman CD player ) would be a good option.  I had an interesting conversation with the manufacturers rep of a respected brand regarding his companies CD transport.  He basically said its all in the DAC, the transport, as long as its not a cheap component, does not make much or any difference. So, I ask does it really matter?

There is no longer a compelling reason to buy a CD player unless you love playing with physical things.

 

Er, yeah, whatever... Are companies still manufacturing CD players & transports...you know the answer. Do many audiophiles have large CD collections...you know the answer to that too.
