CD Transport advices

CD Transport advices
I'd like to have both: the Aurender as streamer and a good (at least equal to the Aurender) CD transport, but I don't want to spend too much money in this. I was thinking if the Rega Apollo R would be a good match for the D100, because I could buy...

Mcintosh mc 252 or Odyssey Stratos Monos Extreme?
