CEC Belt Drive CD Transports vs Jay's Audio CD Transports

@no_regrets 

I was referring to what bigkidz said here:

Understand that power supply is where most of the sound comes from.  If it can filter the noise of the AC, then you get a blacker background, faster transits, more detail, better control of soft to loud and loud to soft speed, etc.  Transformers is where most of this begins. 

The fact that he felt the TL-5 wasn't as good as it's more expensive models and others that he's tried (he's mentioned this before in other threads over the years) helped me decide to go with the Technics.

As for going with a LPS, there is no way to do that as it's not plug 'n play or swappable. You only have an IEC outlet for a plug and that's it.

Hope that helps.

All the best,

@nonoise Oh, okay... now I understand.  Thank you for reminding me of the context... that makes sense to me now.

Best wishes,

@no_regrets - looks like the CEC prices just jumped about $200. 😞

@chayro  Bummer!  Well, they might just price me out of their market.  
 

Best wishes,

@no_regrets - maybe just get the Jays CD2 and be done. I don’t see how you can go wrong.
