"every show that I exhibit at (CES and RMAF) has my demo of computer audio versus Transport (modded, including Superclock3) and everyone that listens to this A/B hear the improvement with computer driven audio."

Audioengr- what transport were you using?
"Kana - I have been using a heavily modded Sony DVP-S7700 with the same DAC. It performs better than anything stock, including CEC, which I also mod."

Mahalo. Now I understand the improvement.
Sorry,

Baddabob- If you're in the market for a transport take a look at:

Stello CDT200 (Aberdeen Components has an excellent mod for
this unit)

LyngdorfAudio CD-1(does upsampling)

A PC alternative would be the new Cambridge Audio
Azur 640H music server
Audioengr- you will also not believe how great a Stello CDT200 sounds with Aberdeen Components mods that cost alot less any of your mods etc...
Baddabob- the Stello CDT200 is a front loader and stock it out performed a DV-50s in a tri-amp'd TacT system. It was reviewed on stereotimes.com. It doesn't need to be modified,
but like everything it can benefit from a few tweaks.

Personally, I'm not concern about switching to any song in less than a second,creating playlists or owning an iPod.
