Jay's Audio transport

Hi again. Yesterday I started a thread regarding replacing my CEC TL2 transport. I received many helpful suggestions so far and thanks. However my question is directly related to the Jay's Audio product. Are they new to the market? If not how long have they been around? Not much info out there on them other than  one 6 moons review ,and here on Agon.
I spoke with Mike from Mike Powell audio yesterday when I discovered the Jay's Audio transport. He was helpful and raved about the product. Unlike the US rep for CEC he was like trying to extract a answer from a.potato.
I guess were I'm going with this thread is does anyone here have any more info regarding Jay's Audio? I guess I don't want to purchase a fly by night Chinese electronics builder that won't be around for support several years down the road.
Thanks Mark

I can relate and possibly accurately imagine how that was made ‘quite clear’ to you. I’ve been on the other end of one of those before.  
Jay’s now has their own international online ‘store’ and  last I checked the “US rep” did not have the CD2 (or any Jay’s) on his website.

heads up, when i got my jays transport it did not come with an owner's manual.  i thought something was wrong as it would not read cds, the problem was there is a piece of foam placed beside the laser assembly to stop it from moving during shipping, just pull it out.

Yep, no manual nor power cord. Definitely went cheap on this rollout.

Same with Denafrips DACs—no cord or manual. That’s ok. Whatever little incidental things like this that helps keep the price down and performance up like they are is ok IMO.
