@charles1dad It seems to me that Srajan did a review a couple of months ago of the Jays CDT3 Mk.3 and a new Jays DAC. If I recall correctly, the upshot of it all is that he was favorably impressed with the DAC but the transport was meh compared to the CDT2 Mk.3. By meh I mean that he heard very little soundwise to justify its twice price. I’m sure others see it differently.
BTW, I contacted Felix Jirousek at SU to get a list of all currently available transports using the CD8 and it turns out that Audionet is also making one (the Plank). What may be obvious to you but was not to me was that it turns out that not all CD8 equipped drives are fitted with the Blue Tiger 84 servo.I’m pretty sure the Aqua uses a different servo, for instance. How big a deal that would be I cannot even guess.
