pro-ject cd box rs2 vs jays audio cd2 mk3


I have been following a lot of posts here , but I have not read of any comparisons as of the 2 transports . I am on the fence about the 2 transports as it does not seem that there is to many choices in that price range. I can purchase both transports for about the same price . any body compare them yet or have any other thoughts . thanks

Jaymark is correct the LTA power supplies are excellent ,and very natural sounding.

one thing that’s  very important ,the oversized low noise transformer and worlds best 

super low noise Belleson Linear regulators , which are 2-3 x the $$ as what the competition use. The LTA is the best under $1 k LPS unit out there 

and this was against a 2 year old Paul Hines, farad3 Sonore, Sbooster, and a     teddy pardo ,and fidilizer which was very clean but Waay to cold and neutral.

 

These are all very good linear power supplies. Some will sound better paired with certain components compared to others. There are just multiple factors/variables that make this so. It is impossible to declare one LPS superior to all the others based upon individual scenarios.

I have a Jay's Audio cdt2 mk3, just finished reading thru this thread. Any updated from the Project owners?

@dafox I don't owned ether of these transports.  However, I am currently in the market for a dedicated CD Transport and as a result, I have been doing a lot of reading on the Jay's, the Project and the CEC's.

From my readings, if I remember correctly, if people have been able to get a Project that is not defective, they have really loved the sound they get from using it.  But, it sounds like there may have been a lot of faulty Project units, to the point that they had stopped selling them until they could find a reliable fix for the faults that were occurring.  I am not aware that they have yet started selling the Project again.

If anyone knows differently, please correct me if I am wrong, as I think the Project could have a lot to offer for a reasonable price no less.

Best wishes,

Don

@dafox By the way... how have you been enjoying your CDT2MK3?

How long have you had it?

What other transports have you compared with it?

Which transport did it replace?

Thank you,

Don
