| If the DAC is the same, how different do CD transports sound? I posted this on another thread : Transports are not all the same SQ wise and will either hold back or release the potential of the DAC. Benjamin Zwickel, Mojo Audio DACs, clued me into this when I was purchasing one of his ,and he was correct. I... | |
| Ruminations On CD Players "Several in the high end stores. Did not pay attention to the brand but hooked up to very high end systems. One was a Moon, Another a Mac" I'll go out on a limb and say that the front end digital equipment was Sim and McIntosh since they make the... | |
| Ruminations On CD Players @tvrgeek Your perspective on things fits right in with ASR. Whatever works for you have at. | |
| Ruminations On CD Players @tvrgeek "I am not aware of any CD player for any price with a DAC that can beat some I know of for $100, let alone a RME, CORD, Denifritz etc" Hyperbole! What high end CD players have you listened to please detail? Any of these for example a... | |

| Moving up???? @robshaw - I don’t have experience with the Tyler Acoustic models you are focused on , but I did previously have both the Lindbrook System 2s and Taylo 7’s . The build quality was there and they very pleasing sounding. I passed them onto 2 differe... | |
| Ruminations On CD Players @jrcotner - My two cents - One advantage to having a separate DAC and CD transport is the flexibility and potentially lower cost of a future change should you find replacing one or the other improves SQ further, or presents a different sound more ... | |

| Puron Plug-In AC Power Conditioner; Impressions 😁 ozzy - Yes. My electrician told me when I had the whole house suppressor installed to still make sure everything was connected to suppression inside. Glad he did or my systems likely would have been damaged. Apologies wig for the brief sidetrack | |
| Puron Plug-In AC Power Conditioner; Impressions 😁 @ozzy - I have whole home surge suppressor at the panel as well. Lightning strikes were close enough to take it out twice; thankfully it did it's job both times. | |
| Tuneful Cables by High-End Audio @rubicon15 - If you reach out to Colin at Gestalt you might also consider speaking with him about Tchernov and Sternklang cables as well. I use Tchernov Ultimate Slim in my main system and Reference 2 in my 2nd system. Another cable line you mi... |
