I bought a McIntosh CD/SACD Transport MCT80, small one (27 cm wide), very good sounding, extremely solid built, but for a lot of money (former times: 4500 Euro, nowadays 6000 Euro). I like ist. But Display is black, althoug its not dead (sometimes it shows function), the bug is into the software. The remote control allows no fast forward. Repair? Not my cup of tea, cause after warranty i have to send it to hamburg, inside a very, very huge and heavy packaging. Its possible to skip via remote control. So I am still lucky with it. By the way: My extremely optimized audio network (Naim Uniti Core with Streaming Bridge Lumin U1 Mini plus Converter Weiss DAC 204, powered by Ferrum Hypsos Hybrid LPS, sounds even better than CD, not with Streaming a la Apple Music or Qobuz. But with the ripped CDs via the Naim Uniti Core.
CD Transport Reccomendation
Looking for CD transport for one of my two channel systems. I have an SMSL P200 in one of my systems that is really a fine player. I ordered another one that was allegedly delivered by DHL but was not. Ugh....Trying to avoid shipping from China again. I have a Jay's cd transport that is a nice piece of kit but I don't want to spend enough to get another one. I am currently using an 800 buck Project front loader that is not bad. Looking for reliable transport for high end disc spinning in a system that has no streaming capabilities. Price cap new is under 2K. Thanks.
