Enlightened Audio Design T-8000 CD Transport

In the age of Ultra HD 4K, you can pretty much ignore the T-8000 boastings about how good it played LaserDisc titles, HOWEVER, the precision required of a good video player make it an excellent audio disc transport.  The audio section on the T-8000 is quite impressive.  With features like CD direct which shuts off all video circuitry and speeds up load time as well as super clean digital output on 4 major formats it become more intriguing.   Then consider the heavy commercial transport, damped chassis and shielded internal circuitry and you realize why these are still in use to spin CD's and feed current hi-end DAC's.
 
Plus if you need a player for legacy titles only available on LaserDisc, this plays them all. At 30 Lbs its definitely built like a tank!

This unit is very clean and includes everything is came with new, including both boxes, manual and remote.
