Opinions welcomed

I am considering a CD-only transport and found McIntosh MCD-751, Pioneer Elite PD-S95, Classe CDT-1 and Sonic Frontier Transport 1 for sale. If you've owned or heard any of the above I would appreciate your comments. I am currently using a Panasonic HD1000 as my transport. Thank you.

Brian, thanks for your reply. Any opinion re the Pioneer against the Panasonic unit?

Brian, as far as i know, the PD-S95 uses the same exact chassis as the PD-65 player. They even come with the same owners manual that covers both units. Never compared the two units side by side, but the build quality on the PD-65 is also pretty solid. Sean

Wow. Sounds like someone trying hard to justify a Classe purchase.... Anyway, I also vote for the Pioneer. Besides, it has a turntable - just like your analog rig! And, if you get a PDR-05 or PDR-99, you can not only use it as a transport, you can record your LPs directly onto CDs!
Keep repeating, over and over: bits is bits, bits is bits.....
