Gun- Don't rule out a used Sony XA7ES CDP for a transport. It's beautifully built and can function as a player while you're between DACs or getting upgrades. Just a thought. Good luck.
Looking to Buy My First CD Transport
I'm thinking of buying a CD transport and am looking for recommendations around the $1000 USED mark.
I've read great things about the Theta Data Basic I and II, and I really like the fact one of those can be purchased for $400 - $700 used. I was also wondering what people thought of the Sonic Frontiers SFT-1. What about the Anthem CD-1 6-disc changer as a transport? Any other recommendations would be appreciated.
My current system is comprised of Musical Fidelity E60 CD player [the unit I'm looking to replace], Bel Canto DAC 1.1, Sim Audio Moon I-5 integrated, Sonus Faber Concertinos and ProAc Tablette 50 Signatures, and NHT SW3P subwoofer.
The setup is in a 12 by 16 foot room, and my tastes lean more towards musical enjoyment, than analytical reproduction.
Thanks!
