I have around 2500 CD’s and my CD transport died a of years ago. I bought an Audiolab 6000CDT and my first streamer, a Bluesound Node, N130. As time went by, I found that I was using the streamer more and more and CD’s less and less. About six weeks ago I got a different preamp and when I was plugging everything back in I didn’t plug the CDT back in.

Hi guys been building a new HI FI system and been waiting on the HI FI Rose 130, but want to light this system up! Lol Whats a really nice cd player that will not be the weak link? I am running mcintosh c2700, Power Q 707, Mcintosh 611s & B&W 801 N all with high end cables.
Thanks for all your input Matt

Jay's Audio CDT-2 MkIII, it's a great transport and definitely ups the SQ game. I own an Audiolab CDT-6000 (which is a very good transport), but the Jay's blew it away. It's what I'd buy as of today, but I'd definitely test the Teac 701 as well. If I2S is important (which it is for me as my Denafrips Pontus II sounds best with this input), then the Jay's Audio transport is the better option.....the Teac does not have an I2S output. |
+1 @ghdprentice The Audiolab 6000CDT is an excellent transport and really inexpensive. You don’t want to spend too much in my opinion cuz once you start streaming you going to be spinning CD’s less and less. Rip all your CD’s onto an external SSD and have your own library as convenient as a streamer. |
