CAL Delta or Theta Data II as transport?


Currently using my Sony 7700 DVD as transport to EVO Millenium DAC II, and wondered if it would be worth moving to a mid-level(?) dedicated cd transport. The CAL and Theta units are frequently available used for $400-500. Other suggestions welcome but like to stay under $1000 used.

How much to you lose at this level compared to the Wadia, Levenson, etal?

Many thanks in advance for sharing your experences.

Get a Theta Data Basic II and never look back. After using a Nakamichi CD Player 2 musicbank for years as a transport, the first thing I noticed with the Theta DBII was a seamless integration of freqency shifts. More musical all the way around.
