Aqua 'La Diva' ($9k) or Gryphon 'Ethos' ($39k) versus. Pro-Ject CD Box RS2 T ($3k)?
@erictal4075 - a humidifier in your listening room would solve your issue.  Static electricity can fry electronic components.

I owned the Aurender ACS100 and compared the rips from it to my iMac using DBpoweramp. Zero difference in sound quality. The ACS100 has a cheap TEAC CD drive and and a HDD. There is nothing special about the ripping architecture in the Aurender, a...

I agree that the Pro-ject RS2T is a fantastic transport. Just received mine a couple of weeks ago along with the Pro-Ject Linear Power Supply.  
Roon upgrade
Stable for me and better sounding!  Perhaps there is something else going on in your system that impacts the sound.  
What are you using as a streamer? Constructive feedback please.
I recently purchased a Rose HIFI RS250 (Streamer/DAC/Pre Amp) and use only the streamer function to output via USB to a Directstream DAC.  I find the sound more involving than using the Directstream DAC’s Bridge II card.

I have no issue with not being able to program tracks.  Not sure I would ever use that feature if it was included.  If I didn’t want to hear a track I would just skip to the next track I wanted to hear.

I have had my RS2 transport for almost a week.  I found an open box Pro-Ject linear power supply and together the sound is awesome right out of the box. I will probably go down the AES/EBU cable rabbit hole but don’t believe a cable much over $25...

Just received my new (open box) Pro-Ject CD Box RS2 T with Pro-Ject Linear Power Supply.  It has been about three years since I have had a full time CD player in my system.  It sounds fantastic connected via AES/ABU to my PS Audio Directstream DAC... 
Pet audiophile peeves - name yours
People that use the term “jaw dropping” when referring to the sound of a new fuse!  
Rose RS250 Streamer/Dac?
@Dandion - you are incorrect. Spotify connect is available on the RS250. I have had the RS250 for a few days connected to my Directstream DAC via USB and using Roon.  Seems to sound better than the Bridge II but will need to do more testing.  
Your Favorite Sounding Power Amp, $5000 US Retail max.
SST Son of Ampzilla II.  Available from underwoodhifi.com.  The best I have had in my system.  Very pleased with this amplifier!  
Has anyone ever been able to get help from NAD
I had a really hard time last spring and it took almost three months to get the M10 I owned fixed.  I sold the M10 at a loss rather than worry if NAD would be there to support it in the future.

@longinc - I bought the unit you mentioned below earlier today from Tmraudio.com. Didn’t see your link until now. I also bought an open box “Pro-Ject Power Box RS Linear Power Supply Black - For Single Unit” a couple of hours ago from audioadvisor... 
How to pronounce SACD?
Why?  WHY??? Questions like this and the responses often make life unbearable!

Only the PS Audio plays SACDs, is made in America, and is family owned.  Also, their support is fantastic!Easy decision.
