CD Transport Question
+1 for Cambridge CXC V2 CD Transport. I've had good luck with mine, it's a nice mid-level unit. Reliable and sounds great. That's not to say there isn't significant merit to ripping your CD's. However, as you're looking for a CD Transport, I have...

Dual Subwoofers?
Qty 2 Rythmik subs F12SE-XLR3 piano black, A370XLR3 plate amp I bought the second about 6 weeks after the first. I’m still amazed at the difference after adding a second. Overkill for your application but IME 2 is better than 1.  
Anyone know where the Virtual Systems went?

Going to Build Intel NUC Server Fan or Not?
@tuberist Understood. I'm using a sonicTransporter i5 w/ 1TB from smallgreencomputer.com. Probably a little more expensive than the NUC though not by much. It might be worth a look.  Good luck!  
First record cleaner
I’m not sure what your budget is but I use the VPI HW 16.5 Record Cleaning Machine with the Walker Audio Prelude system. Most of my records I purchase are used and I’ve found that this works best for me.  
Going to Build Intel NUC Server Fan or Not?
@tuberist definitely fanless. What s/w are you running on the NUC? Thanks!
