Recommend A CD Player With A Good Transport To Feed My DAC - Maybe Under $700.


I’ve been reading about the Cambridge CXC, but have heard some mixed reviews about limited functionality. Are there any CD Players with a comparable quality transport for under $700? It’s been like 18 years since I bought my Arcam and am out of the loop of current players.  I'm interested in transports in that price range too.  Also, does anyone have experience with the NuPrime CDT 8 Pro transport? 

Thanks!

I use an Integra 3.4 changer into DAC with good results. I’m sure the synchro mesh would make it all sound better...

Just use your Arcam player and add a Synchro-Mesh reclocker and a cheap Markertec BNC coax cable.  It will beat anything you can buy for 10X that.  $699 for the Synchro-Mesh. 7psec of jitter:

I have a Musical Fidelity M1 CDT transport and an April Music Stello CD100. They're both very good.

I'm selling both as I've replaced them with a Jay's Audio transport. 

When I was looking for a transport last year, I considered the Cambridge, but ultimately decided to go with the April Music. It seemed to be better built, was favorably reviewed, and is a top loader.
