Luxman D-06u cd-player

Hello folks!
I am considering buying this player. Anyone knows this player well? How does it sound? And how long is the load time from inserting a cd - to the player starts playing the cd? Many high end cd-players are so slow!
Is the cd-tray quiet when open/closing?

I dont think many of you have the U-version of the player, but I think the answers to my questions should be the same as D-06.

Thanks for help!

I recieved mail from Luxman and they say it takes 20-30 seconds to load a cd. I think that's a very long time! Anyone have this player and can see how long time it exactly takes?

I have the D06, not sure it s the same as you are asking about (the "u"), but I find it a total pleasure all around. I have it mated to a Luxman 509U integrated driving my beloved Vandersteen 5As. It take a few seconds to load a CD, but, please, why is that a problem? Sound is magnificent, have this system in a large and dedicated room (clearly, I live alone these days).

I have a Luxman D-05 (same transport as the D-06 I believe) and it takes 25 seconds to turn it on, open the drawer, load and read the disc, then start playing. Yes, that's slow compared to every other player I've owned. A SACD disc takes a couple seconds longer. The drawer is smooth, quiet, and gives an impression of well machined quality. In the grand scheme of things, does it really matter if one has to wait ten extra seconds for the music to start?
