CD TRANSPORT THAT MAKES AN AUDIBLE DIFFERENCE
The Jay's CDT2 is great, but the CDT3 is proving to be one of the best sources available at any price, actually. Hard to believe with Redbook CD but it's true. I think it must be the CLK system mostly, which occupies the whole right third of the u... 
Whole reference system was stolen, now need new speakers on a low budget. Concept 50?
Hi jof, I have a a super nice pair of Concept 500 available in black/rosenut finish. These are my own personal speakers. I sent you a PM. TK  
Do speaker cables really make a difference ?
Amen, Todd7.. We Todd's think alike ;) lol  
Do speaker cables really make a difference ?
They (and other cables) make a huge difference. Forget the "science"; what matters is, can you hear it or not. If you can, it's important. If you can't, it's not important. It's been my experience in some 15+ years of hardcore effort electronics ...

Thank you so much for the very kind words Robert, Jack, a1uc, .. And lately I've been using a CDT3 at my place as well.. For now I've been feeding AES to a Gaia -> RJ45 I2S to a Termi Plus (and I2S or SPDIF to a couple of other very high resol...

Well.. Other than the fact that it's a true all-out engineering effort to make the best CDT possible, has an array of outputs including I2S via HDMI and RJ45, sounds fantastic and is built like a tank to extreme high quality.. No reason I suppose ...

Yes, CDT2 Mk3 has it. And yes, have used it :) The "program" button (if I recall correctly) will switch it to 4x. You'll see the display change accordingly. I would only use it with an NOS DAC downstream though. TK

Upsampling can be a deep topic for sure. One problem with NOS at 44K1/48K frequencies is, the waveform starts to look bad as we go up in frequency. Really bad in fact by 20KHz for example as there are only 2.x sample points available per cycle at ...

I've often used upsampling with the CDT2 feeding an NOS DAC downstream. Seems what we probably should avoid is though, upsampling in the CDT followed by upsampling again in the DAC.

You're welcome Ed. Looks like your Metrum application will need an adapted pinout RJ45 cable to work. Todd

Speaking of RJ45 I2S, I have found a good DDC (eg Gaia or Hermes) to be ~ indispensable in my system. Which also provides RJ45 I2S out, which does seem to sound better generally than HDMI I2S. It's how I feed my Terminator Plus for example. T

Hello folks, Todd here of TEKAudiospecialties.com. Let me apologize please for the confusion a1uc. And BTW your item has shipped. I need to add a note on the website clarifying the shipping expectations. The site is still somewhat of a work in pr...
