CD Player used as transport
A great sounding transport is a used PS Audio Memory Player.  Can be found for $1000 - $1200 used.  Wonderful sounding. Beat my very expensive and good CEC belt drive beast.

Did you post negative feedback? If not, then how will the rest of us know how poor this business is? I will report back later today once I receive the platforms I ordered last week. I would have not ordered them if the seller had all kinds of nega...
