Transport Noise from Krell SACD Standard

What type of experience does anyone have using the Krell SACD Standard CD player and the transport noise it has particularly with Redbood CDs. Although sonically, this is one of the finest players I have ever heard and experienced yet, they must have some sort of issue with the Phillips transport they are using? I talked with Krell a few days ago and they simply stated that it would have to be something I would have to live with because they can't change the type of transport they have. They are familiar with the noise issue particularly at the first few tracks of a redbook CD can be noisy. Tell me about it. It is so noisy at times I can hear it over the music which is ridiculous for a $4000 CD player. This thing should be dead quiet with the CD transport.

Anyways, I am torn because I love this thing sonically. Plus you can do SACD and CD. Redbook CDs sound awesome.
Yet, should we have to put up with a noisy transport system on a $4000 CD player?

Has anyone had Krell replace the transport with any success?
This is a brand new SACD Standard.

Let me know if anyone has any experience with this and any positive results? Otherwise, I guess I will be returning this to the Krell dealer next week.
Thanks!
