Transport Recommendations Please.


I have a headphone system. The digital front end consists of a Rega Planet (used as a transport) going into a Grace 901 headphone dac/amplifier and then into Sennheiser HD600 cans via Cardas Cabling. The sound is good (for digital) but I was wondering if purchasing a transport would improve the digital signal. My budget would be around $800 for a transport. Basically I have two questions: 1) is it worth it? and 2) if so, what should I get? Thanks in advance..

Never heard but only heard great things>>>VECTEUR D2.2. People say it is better than Levinsons etc.... you will have to see for yourself, but this is what I would get. Just stretch the budget a bit, you will not be sorry. ($1290 NEW)

Others include: Parasound CBD-2000 approx $500 used-smooth and more emotional. Meridian 500 approx $600 used-smooth more detail and more laid back than Parasound. CEC 5100 or CEC TL2X, 5100 affordable near $600 2X around $1200.
