Ext. Dac. - is it worth it?

yes you are correct, i have not tested this myself.
i just wonder if it is worth all the extra cash to use a transport and an ext. dac. Say you have a Wadia 861..latest version, upgraded with whatever.. is there that much more to experience in the music using the 270 transport and the 27 dac? or using a Burmester 979 with the 980dac rather than the 001 cd player..? i know i have to listen to this myself, and of course it has something to do with the rest of the system.. but really, double the cash for that last percent of exstacy..? or is it many percent extra..

if you have a wadia 861 and to try a "new" sonic signature then yes it is worth it..

add a reimyo, audio aero, or lecteur dac (totally different signature than what you have now) you have a world class transport..

or if you like the wadia sonic signature and wanted more the
send it to steve huntly at GNSC to push the sonics of your wadia to the limit..
