Need a transport recommendation

My current CDP is over 8 years old and slowly I'm having problems with it. Just bought a new TeddyDAC and am thrilled with it's analog sound but now need some recommendations on a great sounding transport. Are Esoteric transports worth the $$$? Have never listened to one transport vs. another so don't have much experience here.

Rsf507,
The PS Audio PWT sounds exceptionally natural, open and transparent. The use of buffer and memory storage is well implemented, highly recmmended. Top level performance for a quite reasonable cost.

Erik, Charles, have either of you had an opportunity to compare the PWT to well-regarded transports of yesteryear or today?

Tony,
I did`nt make any direct comparisons to those top tier transports. It was`nt necessary as either a component sounds good or it does`nt. To my ears it was wonderful. You can read a comparison review by Grateful(PWT vs Acoustic Art Transport) ot find post by Sgr who compared it to his Mark Levinson transport. There`re other opinions in the archieves.
