Audiolab 6000CDT Dedicated CD Transport with Remote

I purchased this last week at the reduced price of $549.00. It must have been one of the last units sold before the price increase. So far it is exceeding my expectations. I was pleasantly surprised when playing Pink Floyd's Dark Side of The Moon. All the tracks segued without interruption! Had I known this I would have bought it much sooner. Maybe the folks at Audiolab or here at W.W. Stereo should highlight this capability. I spent quite some time vainly searching for a CD player with continuous playback. My Cambridge Topaz 10 didn't have it and it drove me nuts. Sometimes the Cambridge would stop playing discs completely for no apparent reason too.
I have absolutely ZERO buyer's remorse over this unit.

After having a year of trouble with my Cambridge CXC CD transport (excessive skipping), I begin researching other transports. I had contacted Cambridge about my problem, but they basically said the transport was inherently sensitive and they couldn’t do much about it- I could send it in but I would have to pay a fee to have it checked out. I decided on investigating the Audiolab 6000CDT. It had received great reviews but was said to scratch CD’s when you load them in the unit.. I called World Wide Stereo and spoke to Ira about my concerns. He was very helpful and listened to my concerns about the Audiolab unit. He highly recommended it. So, I purchased it. I LOVE IT! The sound is great- nice soundstage, clarity and quality. Zero issues with skipping , even with my scratched CD’s. And the unit has not scratched any of my CD’s. A great purchase and buying experience World Wide Stereo. Thank you!

Just a few weeks ago I had never even heard of a CD transport. Now thanks to advice from World Wide Stereo I own one, and I am hearing my CDs with a level of differentiation of the sounds that I have never before experienced. My CDs have never sounded this good before. A great piece of equipment.

After 15yr's i decided to rekindle my interest in" Audio" and build a "New System" and to my surprise this unit surpassed my expectation of what good "CD PLAYBACK" should sound like..Used with a number of "DAC'S" it was like having a different "CD PLAYER" everyday. It let's you know what your "DAC" is doing..! I'AM impressed..!!

Player with it's own Dac

I bought this from World Wide about one week ago. It was beamed to me in two days. No shipping charges. Fantastic. Very well boxed. I am using a Cambridge CXN V2 for the dac. Sounds wonderful. I was using a Sony S-7000. Technically a dvd player but with a high end cd output. Of course the Audiolab has superior sound compared to the oldy-but-goody Sony. Definition and soundstage were the first notable improvements. Fantastic dynamics. I can easily follow each instrument or voice. Very well built. My first slot loader. I don’t miss a tray but slot llading takes a little getting used to. You have to handle the cd a bit different but no big deal. So far I am extremly happy with it and it works quite well with the CXN V2 which is an incredibly capable streamer. A really great transport for the money!

XLNT. spinner for the money. This product is very heavy duty. You could spend Ten's of thousands of dollars for a transport. My question is Why. I would imagen if I had two Hundred Thousand Dollars in a sys. It might be stupid to spend under a Thousand for one. Mike

A beautiful machine - built solid, heavy not plastic, feels like an investment not something that will be replaced in 2 yrs - clean front panel - simple operation - straight forward - silent - the slot load grabs your disc firmly not like some flimsy machines do so there is plenty of vibration control - sound is phenomenal: mine is running into Chord m-upscaler and Hugo TT-2 DAC so the sound from the disc was the best I had ever heard using Moon Audio cables - great stuff - very happy!!!
No regrets!!!

Wow! Built like a Sherman tank. Great sound paired with my Cambridge CXA80 and monitor audio bronze 2’s (towers coming soon). The selling point was the cd reading enhancement.
Great product!!

Excellent transport. Built very solid and does not have a tray that may cause problems down the road. I use a McIntosh integrated amp that has an excellent DAC so all that I really needed was a transport. This certainly fulfilled everything I needed for my CD’s

CD's never sounded better.

PERFECT!! JUST WHAT I NEEDED A SIMPLE CD TRANSPORT TO PLAY MY CD COLLECTIONS...

Couldn't believe CD's could sound so good until I purchased the 6000CDT. I already had an excellent Integrated amp with DAC and excellent speakers, but the sound was just OK. That is until I purchased the 6000DCT. It might be the best audio purchase I've ever made.

I purchased the 6000CDT after sampling some similar priced CD players and transports. I paired the 6000CDT with my SimAudio Moon 240i and Martin Logan LX16 speakers, the family room system. Right out the box I experienced precise and detailed sound. With continued use, the sound continued to improve. The 6000CDT is well built and I appreciate that I can use an upgraded power cable with the unit. The transport mechanism is extremely quiet. I must add that the 6000CDT's performance is close to the performance of my $2,000 plus CD transport. My family and I am very satisfied with the unit! I highly recommend the 6000CDT and of course recommend pairing it with a quality DAC!
