I am in a similar sort of situation. I am trying to get a transport and have been looking at a lot of them out there and I think I settled on one. It is the Northstar 192 transport. I cannot find anyone out there that has heard it, so I am taking a big jump into the unknown. What I do know is it had a very favorable review, albeit a review is a review. And it has a very good transport mechanism, some say the best u can buy.....philips CD Pro 2, it is the same one used in the audio research CD3, EMC1, Audio Aero capitole and probably others.
For what it's worth, check out the review.....

I think I am taking the plunge....got my fingers crossed.
