Recommend used digital source for $3K used


This spring, I'm planning on being in a position to spend some money on a significant upgrade. One consideration is a new digital source in the "not to exceed" $3K range. I'm currently using a Jolida JD 100 with RCA NOS tubes.

I'm open to both CDP's or transport/DAC options, and already assume I will get the most bang for my buck with a DAC/transport.

nice system.... would look for a previous thread for reference dacs'.... there was some really great reviews in there on the differnt sonics....

here are some suggestions since i just added my first dac...

would consider the following:

Muse 24/96
Audiologic
Electrocompinet (this was my choice)
Audio Research DAc III

Transports.... would spend just as much on the transport as the dac....just as important...make sure whatever you buy can be repaired (this is why i moved away from one box players..ie marantz)

Wadia
CEC
Muse
Audiomeca
Pioneer Dv-10ax (my choice, plays all formats..well built@ 60lbs)

dont forget to add power cords, isolation, and digital cable, and cable stands(went with bdr cones/pucks, seismic sinks,bright star sand boxes, and ridge street cable risers ) these made profound differences in the dac & transport..

good listening !!!!!!
