Three transport choices, which one?

I have only had one of the three, the T-7000. While
it is really an LD player, it is also a REALLY good
transport. I had it only for a short period of time,
but I was quite amazed at how favorably it compared
to my CEC TL-2. The T-7000 is truly buit like a tank.
The tray can be "troublesome", and many have reported
having this problem. Other than than, and the fact
that it is big, an amazingly good and affordable transport.

Factaudio, I've heard that the Museatex is an okay transport, but only okay, if it is not used with the BIDAT. Can you shed any light on this? Have you heard the Museatex with other DACs? Additional thoughts on its sound would be most welcome.

Jeff, which DAC did you use at the time? I've read reports on Audio Asylum that the T-7000 did not do well in recreating the decay, kind of the "back end" of the notes, and that it was maybe not quite so airy and extended on top. I'd appreciate your comments.

t 7000 is better than the proceed pdt2 Transport which it replaced then. what you read on asylum doesn't make any sense to me in my experience with the ead 700/7000 combination I had for several years using the AT&T glass connection between them.

Tony:
I cannot give you a lot of details, as I listened to the T-7000 just briefly. I was using it with an Audio Logic M34DSB DAC, a four-tube DAC. I had sold the T-7000 and was simply testing the CD output as requested. I doubt that I listened for more than 15 minutes...just long enough to be sure of operation. As stated, I normally use a CEC TL2, a very good quality transport, that has very good synergy with the AL DAC. If interested, you can find several threads on this subject. In my testing I was using the ST-Optical connection which I have found to work very well on the AL. While I did not listen seriously, my response was very quick and very certain: "Hey, this is good!"
