Recently i replaced my CEC TL1 who is almost die by a DIRONDO cd transport to soon to give you any comment about that because my JADIS JS1 dac is on a trip to France to be updated for the MK3 status! BURMESTER 979, MBL,and the one that impress me the most was the METRONOME KALISTA top load dreaming unit. Which way those transports could have a sonic signature because it is only data going in a serial bit of 0 and 1 ? Also in your top ten list: top load or drawer? So lets show your top ten!!!!
Steve, when one is using the Northstar transport, it is necessary to use a DAC with I2S input to get the best results. But there aren't so many around with this input.
