Experimenting with the cables types in order to determine the optimum combination, I spent quite a bit of time listening to symphonic recordings. The system as configured demonstrated an impressive ability to resolve such complex material and confirming that the CDT2-MK3 serves up solid timing. I then played the same tracks with the transport connected directly to the Denafrips DAC, without the Gaia DDC/re-clocker in circuit. Sound staging and low-end performance fell back as might be expected, jitter being particularly damaging to these two aspects of performance, but on its own the Jay’s still proved no slouch – evidence that the transport’s own internal oven-controlled clock does a very good job of minimising jitter. A visiting friend, hearing the system in this configuration, commented, “Oh the bass! That’s some grunt.”

 

He’s Not The Messiah… but he’s not a very naughty boy!

The truth, though, is that the Jay’s Audio CDT2-MK3 is well-balanced and impartial right across the audible bandwidth. Some people are never satisfied, though. Mike Christ (he’s not the Messiah; it’s a relatively common German surname) who runs HEADquarter Audio near Cologne (headquarteraudio.de), sells a range of brands, including Jay’s Audio. While he admires the CDT2-MK3 very much, he felt the standard puck – a plastic disk with a neoprene underside – could be better. His alternative is the £120 QStab puck – 3D printed from a bone-like material – and while it’s designed for the CDT2-MK3, it should work with other top-loading transports that also use the CDM4 drive. I’m not usually a fan of tweaks. I can’t remember the last time I mentioned one in a review, but the HEADquarter QStab puck is winningly complementary, allowing the CDT2-MK3 to resolve even deeper layers of tonal colour, texture and timing.

That doesn’t detract, though, from what Jay’s Audio has achieved with its CDT2-MK3. It is an impressively engineered and fine sounding transport deserving of serious respect. That it costs as little as it does is further reason to pay it attention.
