Wadia 861as transport with non-Wadia DACs


Would like to hear specific examples where people have fed Wadia 861 digitial output (or perhaps 270 transport) into a non-Wadia DAC. What type/format of cable for best results? Any problems with compatibility (e.g. issues with Wadia Clocklink feature)? Thanks.

Why should one use the 861 as a transport only, while it is designed as transport + DAC? Is it not like throwing away money by using the unit as such?

Nick: Thanks. Indeed, Steve advises against using the 861 in this way. However, using a 270 as transport with non-Wadia DAC is doable. So I'd like to hear of anyone's experience with such a setup.
According to Steve of Great Northern Sound, Wadia transport and DAC are made to sound best w/ its Clocklink feature. You should give him a call for he knows more about Wadia than anybody else.
