Rja, not sure does this helps, but I have Metronome Le player 2 s. I have seen in the specs that they both use the same type of transport, modified Philips Gf 8. The differnece is, I believe, that Le player 3 (only transort) and 3s (which is dac and cd player) have their transports encapsulated in the “Pickup Box”,which probably means that they have upgraded it from 2s.
From my experience, they probably should as its transport seems to be quite generic.
I have previously used the Dcs and Burmester players (which are much more expensive, of course) and aldo I can say that I am very much satisfied with the sound of Metronome Le player 2s, its transport (in my player, have not seen or tried the no.3 or 3s) like I have said, is not on the level of esoteric transport used in Puccini or Philips cd pro used in Burmester 001. However, neither is the price.
I do not use pc audio, not do I intend to and I prefer one box solutions.
