Shanling ET3 or Project CD RS2-T CD transport comparison


I'm trying to decide what to purchase and i'm considering the well regarded Shanling ET3 but i'm super curious about the RS2-T transport from Project. These are in totally different price segments and i totally understand but more $$ is not always an indicator of better sound quality.. (But often is :) 

Has anyone actually heard both and would care to comment?

I can't audition before i purchase unfortuneatly

 

thanks!

Rather than either transport, are you open to change direction to a streamer/server?  I have found SQ better than playing discs.  Qobuz will have most of your library available.  If there is a record not available, you can burn and save in the server.  A used Aurender N100h will be between the cost of your listed transports and a used N150 at the cost of a new Project.   That is where I would spend my money.  I love the convenience is streaming and a library.  Any album or song is a couple of phone clicks away … with better SQ.
