Best Transport with Museatex Bitstream DAC


I am looking for advice on what transport works best with the Museatex Bitstream DAC. Please, I am not looking for transport advice but simply advice from users of this DAC who have had some experience with various transports. Also, if you have a digital cable preference with a particular combination, please post that information also.

Happy Listening.

The Wright mods are a must. I've owned both the bitstream and the bidat and the mods put both units in world-class territory. I also second the Moray James digital interconnect recommendation. I think the cable is equal to the mods because moray's design is part of the mod process.

I have used a CEC belt transport with the bitstream to very good effect.
I know some will see this as heresey and I don't want to start a " do power cords work" debate, but I and several other Bidat and bitstream users feel that Shunyata power cords or an equally serious brand enable these units to perform at a much higher level. Most digital designers will agree that power has a huge effect on digital gear. FWIW.
After some extensive listening, I have to post here that I think the PS Audio Perfect Wave transport is the best transport I've ever heard with a Bitstream or Bidat. I could detect no jitter and it's more liquid and analog-sounding than anything I've encountered. I've not read one negative post or review about this transport's performance. So, I bought one.

Some of the used prices I've seen for them are truly a steal. CD's ain't dead yet and probably won't ever be, IMHO.
