So if I'm remembering correctly, the NuPrime CDT 9 is very jittery for a modern transport. Is that right?

I spent quite some time trying to find a Proof for some of these notions. the most fun part of my activities was posted here. These last few weeks I found another "proof" that not all spinners are born the same: when setting dBpoweramp CD Ripper onto Secure (recover errors) mode, my Lenovo's internal CD/DVD drive would take HOURS to rip one CD. For practically every track of every CD being ripped, it would try to "recover errors". Before you ask: since I fix Discmans for fun, lens and mechanism were clean. Once I bought this external LG DVD/CD drive, bit-perfect rips are done in minutes. |
The I2S format that PSA and Wyred4Sound use transfers the clock and datastream separately from transport to DAC. The result is less noise/interference than S/PDIF, USB, optical which transfer all signals together. An HDMI cable is used to carry the individual streams. I used it between PS Audio components and found it to be very smooth with low noise, presenting a realistic image. |
