Transports

I need some help making a decision. My main source of music enjoyment is primarily Cd’s. I play both red book and sacd, but by far many more redbook. I have the EMM Labs Dac2x v2 and using my former player as a transport. Thinking about purchasing a EMM labs TSDX transport to spin my disc. Has anyone been able to compare the sound quality of using the EMM dac both through the EMM transport and through a non-EMM transport. Please tell me what the benefits of all EMM vs EMM dac with decent non-EMM transport. Thanks.

Actually, a review of the Denafrips Avatar stated that they have 3,000 transports as backups should anything go wrong. They're not quite as rare as hen's teeth yet. 😄

But, as fuzztone pointed out, the Pro-Ject CDT is said to be better having been designed by the same guys who designed the first CD transports. That, and it's entirely latest generation tech available. Sadly, it's always out of stock so it's on backorder.

All the best,
