DACs and Transports--do they still go together?

A bit behind on the technology these days; when DACs such as Lampizator and MSB are discussed, the talk seems to center around servers, computer files and streamers, none of which I use or want. I like to play CDs. Do any of the models in these two lines have inputs for a CD transport, or is that just not how the market is going now? Maybe I need a dope slap.....

I don't know what Lampi offers as transports you can always email them and ask what they have or would recommend. You can  look at CEC & Simaudio transports as options for either brand if you are looking for quality CD functionality versus the fuller functionality suite of the MSB transports

Taking a quick look at a picture of the rear of the MSB Discrete DAC as an example it looks like you are in business, it has a few different inputs. I would imagine that Lampi's wouldn't be an issue either.

I have the lastest Mojo Audio DAC as well as a Modwright DACs and spin CDs with both  via a Simaudio 260dt CD transport in one system , and a Cambridge CXC CD transport in the other.
