New Jays Audio flagship cd transport

Just posted this on another website - pasting it here:  My Jay’s CDT3-MK3 arrived today - I have it playing as I type - will post a review after I let it break-in a bit, but I’ll share a few quick notes: it played every disc my PS Audio PWT would not play all the way through (but that was less than a dozen discs), it is DEAD quiet - I mean DEAD QUIET, and the build was even more impressive than I thought it would be - I’d even say it is luxurious - the machining is superb - love the way the cd lid slides back; has a heavy duty full function remote, and a nice carbon fiber CD clamp (but will still try the ‘bone’). Initial sonic impressions are very positive - music is freer from the speakers (nice sound staging), sounds great at low levels, so far has a sense of smoothness, lots of detail without etch or brightness . . . so far so good . . . running it AES to a Metrum Pavane L3 DAC. I love the aesthetics and functionality. I ordered it through Todd King, the new US distributor - he also does repairs for Jay’s and Denafrips, nice to have US support. Happy listening!

I've been thinking of buying a Jay's transport but have been unable to figure out how much the duty/tariff is. How do I get in contact with Todd King? 

@egrady You can now buy from within the US.

One of the main differences would be the 10Mhz Clock! That's not to be sniffed at!

I also think you can use this clock as a master for other equipment that support reference clock connectivity hence making it superb value for money.

Not just a CD player - but a Master Clock too.

Ed, that is a nice description of the CDT3. Hello folks, Todd here in TX USA of TEKAudioSpecialties.com. Just wanted to take a moment and introduce myself here. I'm happy to be partnering with Alvin and Beatechnik for the US and Canada, sales and service.

We are still using the direct shipping approach for sales for now as that a) works well and b) saves an extra shipping cost trip. But we'll be determining meanwhile if we need to also stock certain items. Please feel free to discuss anything further, I can also be reached directly at TEKAudioSpecialties1@gmail.com.
