    Default FS: Audiolab 6000CDT transport, with SR Orange Fuse and Blackcat SilverStar II cable

    Been really enjoying getting back into CDs,
    Sadly so much I got the upgrade itch, so selling on my Audiolab 6000CDT transport.

    A wonderful sounding bit of kit, sound quality that hits WAY above its price-point.
    Noticable improvement over my modded Oppo 203 for CD playback to the same Dac.
    Weighty thing, solid and build like a tank.

    Great review here and agree with it 100%.



    FOR SALE: (what you'll get - WILLING TO SPLIT)


    1. Audiolab 6000CDT CD Transport
      (like new condition, zero bad marks, dings or scrapes)

      SEPARATE £315 delivered - (£380 with SR Orange Fuse)

    2. fitted with SR Orange Fuse
      (RRP: £155)

      SEPARATE £90 delivered

    3. hooked up with a Blackcat Silverstar! MkII digital cable.
      (Bought this from AOS for £180 Jan 22
      another MK I sold on the Wam @ £175
      Best BNC/RCA digital cable under a grand IMO - BNC terminated /with RCA adapters)
      Like to get back (ish) what I paid, so


      SEPARATE £175 Delivered

    If your looking for a CD Transport, this is the one to get unless spending big bucks.
    Mine,
    Fitted with the SR Orange fuse and used with the Silverstar digital cable maxes out its performance.
    Used this one with a 6K Dac, and it sounded awesome.


    Thanks.

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    I have the CDT 6000, and very good it is too, but if you decide/need to split the package, let me know about the cable.
    Cheers Chris
