Jay’s Audio CD Transport

I’m just curious if anyone has been able to see the black version of either the Jay’s Audio CDT2 or CDT3 in the flesh?

I haven’t been able to see either in person as of yet, but all of the photos I see are usually of the silver version. 

Im wondering what you have thought of the finish quality of the black vs the silver version. 

I ask as my other components are black and I’m just trying to decide which color to go with. 
 

Thank you and best wishes to you all,

Don

I'll be honest the Technics black I like more and the now LTA Aero metal finish is better IMO. Jay isn't bad by any stretch there just a couple manufacturers that do black metal better.

Hello and thank you for your reply.  

Yes, you are absolutely correct. Not only is the Aero missing aes, but also the IS2 output that many people enjoy.  

However, even with that being said, the Aero has been highly thought of by many, and it has been said that its sound reproduction punches well above its weight class. 
 

Im thinking I will use the coax for cd playback and the usb from streaming at some point in the future.  
 

Also, at least in my case, digital will be my secondary source of music, so I’m not too worried about not having every available input connection type. 
 

Thank you again for your post 👍

Best wishes,

Don
