Srajan at 6moons.com found the Accustic Arts Drive 1 to be a great match with his Zanden DAC. I use it with an Audio Note DAC and love it. Some say the XLR digital out on the Drive 1 is more dynamic than the RCA out, but I have not compared them. To my ears it's a very smooth and neutral transport and the dynamics are excellent. It's a beautiful machine too and has functioned perfectly.
Best transport for Zanden 5000 dac
What transport/s can you reccomend as top class matches for this fine dac? I gravitate to detail, smoothness(paricularly on vocals), nuetrality and dynamics. Currently I'm using Esoteric P700 which I like but feel there are better out there. An alternative to Esoteric is sought-- any thoughts on Audiomeca, Spectral, Wadia, CEC TL0? Personal experiences preferred to opinions but all comment is very welcome.
