USB CD Transports


I'm interested in purchasing a CD transport with USB output. Schiit has just released their URD transport, has anybody compared this to the Shanling ET3 transport with USB output?

Looks like your first post.  Welcome.  What does your system consist of?  Why not just rip your CDs to SSD?

My Aurender reads from SSD, or from stream and caches data. All data is played from cache and the design minimizes internal noise. My ripped files sound great. At least they sound great if the recording engineers and musicians did their job.  It’s hard to advise you without knowing what components make up your system.  FYI: You can look up our virtual systems in our profile and should you want to, you can post your system on your profile.  I went through the process of considering the purchase of a CD transport, and decided against it based on the advice given me at the time.
