Was sold on streaming hi-res until I replaced my Cambridge CXC transport with the Jays’. Streaming still sounds great but something natural about the red books now. Both paired via I2s to Holo Audio May Dac. To think I almost got rid of the discs!
older CD transport vs newer ones.
I added a fairly inexpensive CD transport to my DCS Rossini DAC/Clock and am shocked how much better it sounds spinning a disc vs streaming it. It's not even a close call. I was thinking of bettering my CD transport and was looking at options such at the Jay's CD transport. There are also options such as Mark Levinson 31.5 which was a 10K unit in it's day. Any thoughts on the best way to go? I get a little worried about one of these older units breaking and not being able to get it fixed.
