CDs outsold vinyl 2 to 1 in England this year.
New, Very Interesting CD Transport
On John Darko's website today we learn of the brand new Shanling ET3 CD Transport. And for $729 USD it looks really capable. Top loading with Philips SAA7824 drive. AES/EBU, coaxial, TOSLINK and I2S digital outputs. Plus Wifi and Bluetooth. USB to connect to a external HD and built in upsampling, too. It even will output digital to USB for connection to a DAC but not with upsampling.
Here's the skinny:

I saw this CDT this morning and noticed it uses only digital outs with USB being one of them. I don't think any other CDT or CDP has that feature. As for looking "plasticky" it has an CNC machined all metal body. Must be the front with the display that gives that appearance. Here's the main site with all the details. All the best, |
