Simaudio 260D - As transport

You will get better jitter performance by adding a reclocker to your current transport.  The ONLY thing that matters with a transport is jitter, nothing else.

Here is the effect of the Synchro-Mesh with a typical transport:

It is also critical to use at least a 1.25m S/PDIF cable, and the best cable you can afford.  Here are some cable jitter comparisons:

The latest version of the Synchro-Mesh directly measures 8psec of jitter, and that is measured at the end of my 4-foot Standard BNC cable across a 75 ohm termination:

What is the jitter measurement of the Simaudio transport at the end of a coax cable?

Ani - another mod is available BTW.

why Cambridge doesn’t publish critical information such as THD, signal to noise ratio,Intrinsic Jitter and so on as Simaudio and other brands do.

Intrinsic jitter is a useless number anyway.
