Looking to better my redbook action....


Hi folks...
I'm going to have around $1500 to spend, and i'm looking to take redbook as far as I can go w/this AND not need a preamp. so, transport/DAC combo or CD player w/volume.
I like coming here to fish for ideas....

my first thoughts....
- benchmark dac-1 and transport in the $4-600 range
- shanling t-100 model

i'd go used, all the way.
no preamp in ether setup. the output here would run to a McCormack dna-1 > VR4

any comments, suggestions or concerns are greatly appreciated.

Used Cal Audio Delta Transport with matching Sigma or Alpha DAC. The DAC has left/right output controls on the rear panel and is a good sounding unit. Both can be had for much less than a grand used when they are available.
