Thanks. I am in the process of doing the comparative listening now. I just need to decide which sound I like better, as the older transport seems to sound more analog-like and since I am mostly into vinyl I kinda like that. Thank you again for your comment.
Improvement in CD player transports
Have transports improved over the years the way DACs have? I have a Cary Audio Xciter DAC and have an Acurus CD player and a Music Hall CD 25.2. Not sure which to use as the transport. The Acurus is built like a tank and has the air constrained dampening, but the Music Hall is a lot more current component. Opinions are welcome. Rest of my system is on Audiogon. Upgraded to MartinLogan Electromotions and the PrimaLuna Dialogue 2 since it was posted. Thank you.
