CD Transport

[Mr Zippy]

Hi,

I currently play my venerable Arcam Alpha CD player (1993) through a Musical Fidelity DAC. The Arcam however is starting to show its age and I need a replacement. When I bought the DAC in the late 90s I was told to mate this up with a CD transport in due course. Well finances etc etc have prevented me from doing this. But now seems the time. Could anyone recommend a good CD Transport at a reasonable price?

Cheers.

Is it an Alpha 5 ??? If it is it runs one of the nicest internal DACs of all time 1541A. A small sum on modification and they can be true giant killers!
