Google 'cd transport list' for what CD player builder uses WHAT transport.
Sony IS very popular. As is the Sanyo with other entries by Hitachi, Sharp, Teac and MY #1 choice, Philips. Other MINOR players exist.
I think Philips is OUT of the market? Too Bad. By all accounts they were the best.I see now just how inexpensive these transports ARE. No wonder Philips dropped out. Probably not worth the hassle to make such a slim margin.
And yes, the Sanyo can be had ANY day of the week for <20$. In some cases lots less.
Too much is never enough

My Cambridge Audio CD 6 I have had for 20 years - when I bought it it was a dealer demo that was used every day for a year in the store - it had the glass case to let people see the insides. I demanded they sell me the demo model figuring if it can withstand that it'll probably last. No complaints - never had a problem, works perfectly (knock on wood).
It uses a Sanyo SF-91 which was also used in their dedicated transport version Disc Magic.
and sound brilliant. They also have great internals (fine DACs, transports, etc). For our part, we have two CD3 players (plus two spare lasers). We'll get around to refurbishing them sometime.
