Transport for MHDT Havana

Just bought a MHDT Havana Balanced DAC and will need a good transport for it. Any suggestions? Would like to keep it under $1500.

Really like Stello CDT100 (no longer available) and I'm intrigued by the WOO WTP-1 (which is not yet available...). Kind of partial to top loaders.

Ok, I'm a little confused? This is a nice DAC but why spend more on a transport than you probably did on the unit itself? The MHDT is the real brains and can run off your pc or even an xbox. If you want a top loader, buy an old Rega.

Elevick,

Quite simply because the transport matters quite a bit--probably equally to the DAC. I'd love it if a cheap dvd player's digital out were sufficient with a good enough DAC, but even those dacs that promise jitter reduction seem to benefit from a quality transport.
