CEC - how are they these days?


I am in the market for CD transport in the price range of within $3K. There are lots of candidates, and I found out that CEC at least used to make good transports. I checked their website to find out there is no mention of US distribution. I am wondering whether someone out there own or have experience with CEC's newest lines, specifically TL 2 or 51, and what you think about them. Any comment or information about products or dealer in US is highly appreciated. Ken

My recent short contact with the Parasound is that they have excellent service and prompt return for my 4 years old CEC. The belt in CEC is quite reliable. CEC and perhaps Burmester transport had certain musical quality that's quite different from others. The vocal just seem to sound "right." It does not have the thin sound that's typical in Japanese electronics. And it gives each musical note some weight that makes the presentation more palpable.
