April Music Stello CDT100

Very, very good, especially at its price level. It was much better than my Theta Data Basic II. I didn't keep it though because I went on up to the Accustics Arts Drive I, but that was 2-3 times as much as the CDT100. I don't think that you could go wrong in getting it.

I was also considering these:

North Star M192 Transport

Uses Philips CD Pro2 mechanism.

CEC TL51X

I take what I said back about the Stello CDT100, I auditioned the Stello CDT200 (around $1500.00).

I haven't heard the two others that you mentioned.
