JAY'S Audio CDT-3-MK2 or PS Audio DirectStream Memory Player

I saw a bunch of pictures of (6moons review?) Jays factory looks very impressive. The PS has the digital screen, which MIGHT eliminate the need for a laptop, and, of course free software upgrades. As I recall, Jays lacks the output options like toslink or coax

I would love to evaluate both, but that's not likely anytime soon. In the meantime, I am very happy with the Marantz HD CD 1 as a transport: MSRP $600. It's so inexpensive, it's easy to overlook, but a real solid performer

Thank you for all the feedback. It looks like I will be getting the Jay's Audio per all the comments. It does not have a toslink, but I don't need that. I would be using the coax output. 

I’d prefer the coax every time. I’m jealous.

Please provide some specific comments about the Jay relative to the April Music transport; I have the CDT 100 . Txs

The DMP has received tons of top flight reviews from the audio press from around the globe since its inception. And for what it’s worth,I own one and it is an awesome sounding transport. I have not heard the Jays Audio or read much about it. Can you explain why the Jays outperforms the DMP?
