Transport Upgrade

I've read here on audiogon that the Rega players have some issues. I'd do a search before I invested.

If you are looking at DAC in the pricerangeof the Benchmark you might also want to check out the PS Audio Digi Link 3 (non-modded) , have it in my second system using an Arcam CD 72 a transport. The amp is a Consonance Cyber 100 Sig - very nice to my ears

Wig - Benchmark is not sensitive to quality of the transport as long as it is bit transparent (no digital volume control etc). I use Benchmark with a cheap DVD player. DVD players have good tracking and inherent MP3 playback. In addition many plays DVD-Audio and SACD converted to PCM. Some also play HDCD.
