Differences the Project RS2 Transport and the (newest) Jay's Audio CD2 Mk 3

Hello S4patrick

Awesome and congratulations I am enthusiastically waiting for a tracking number for my Jay's Audio cd2 mkIII . I purchased it last week in hopes of not coinciding with the Chinese New Year. It was a unusually tough decision between  the Project  Audio  rs2 and the Jay's .I am glad to hear I wasn't the only person agonizing on which one to purchase.  It's great to hear the Jay's audio  cd2 mkIII is meeting your expectations.  I  researched reviews and owner impressions and decided the Jay's cd2 mkIII was the one for me because of the I2s to mate with my Pontus II and IEC socket . I also wanted a reliable durable transport that proved itself over the years with good ergonomics.  It's a sexy beast . My system is down and I won't be able to give listening impressions for some time. My house was damaged in hurricane Ida last August. 

@s4patrick and  ​​​​@chuckie Congratulations to both of you with your Jay’s Audio transport purchases. I have no doubt that both of you will be enjoy long term satisfaction. Chuckie I hope your housing situation resolves for you in the very near future.

Hello Charles1Dad

Thank you so much for your welcomed and warm wishes regarding my home.  You're one of the most sincere and thoughtful gentlemen on Audiogon and very insightful.  Your posts are very well written with a philosophical nature. I always look to read what Charles1Dad has to say. I am sure your words of wisdom and knowledge has touched many over the years  on Audiogon myself included. 

Yes, it was a close decision on which transport would serve my needs and the Jay's audio cd2 mkIII was my choice.  Seemingly there's not a bad choice regarding either product.  I am also happy to hear of your excitement during the break-in period with the Project audio rs2 and LPS. I hope and wish you many years of pure enjoyment with your Project audio rs2 also. 

All the Best

Chuckie

I really appreciate your very kind comments. I just do not believe that you can go wrong with either of these CD transports. It was teajay (Terry London) who brought the Pro-Ject  RS2T to my attention via his thread on this forum. Otherwise the latest P.S.Audio  CD transport or Jay’s Audio CDT MK III would have been my choice.
