If a transport is a high end box it won't cause any interference. There will be nothing to hear. No need to listen. Given that the level of interference of existing devices is low, this bounds the possible gains one might get from pursuing unobtanium. If one wants a reference, then follow Thorsten's suggestion to use an SD card based transport. This is about the simplest possible way of providing digital transport functionality and, while inconvenient, it is no more bother than dealing with reel to reel tape.
Manufacturers and reviewers are the ones who should be evaluating and measuring interference susceptibility. I know enough about this technology from working at a computer manufacturer, including the spook department, to realize that a major investment in test equipment is needed to address these issues. Not a hobbyist venture.
