It's a good, honest 1/2 answer.

Almost the ENTIRE Cambridge series of CD players from the 300 series to the 800 series use the SAME transport.
That would be the SANYO SF-P101N.
My 840 had it. Your 651 does, too.

Cambridge has, over time, used a smattering of transports from Sony (KSS series) to some Phillips stuff, which is my personal favorite. Phillips is now out of the market.

Now, the question is which is the better DAC? That supplied with the CA player or your external DAC?

Also, I'd find out from CA what mechanism the stand-alone uses. It is just possible they went in another direction here.
Too much is never enough

Why would you need the re-clocker if your DAC re-clocks anyway? /n - Ivan303 07:40:24 07/10/15 (3)
