What is the best transport?


I want to upgrade my transport. I am using the Audio Note CDT 2. My dac is the Audio Note 2.1x sig. I have not yet auditioned any new transports, but have read up on the Audio Note CDT 4 and the Esoteric P-03.

Both of these are in the 16-18k price range. My budget can go that high. Will my dac be good enough or be overpowered?

What else is available which should be considered?

PS Audio PWT. Of course it's not as expensive as some of the others but none the less its one of the best

Changeout,

May I suggest, presuming you haven't - already, communicating with Audio Note UK? I've found them responsive :-)

Changeout,

Please contact me offline. I am about to put up for sale a superb transport that will more than fulfill your needs. I do not want to use this site for sales pitch. I am not a dealer.

Neal, the system will not allow me to see your contact info. I am not sure how to manage this new Agon.
Unless you always equate higher cost with higher performance, ericminer`s suggestion is correct. The PWT(memory buffer) is really a superb sounding transport and will be difficult to exceed with the much more expensive transports.
