| Which transport with my Jay's Audio DAC? Many thanks....But....I do wish that I had received more illumination on the question of comparison I raised in the OP.C'est la vie. | |
| Which transport with my Jay's Audio DAC? You are one very broken record, Sir. | |
| Which transport with my Jay's Audio DAC? georgehifi:Thanks for the heads-up on another transport with OS capability. | |
| Which transport with my Jay's Audio DAC? itzhak1969:Why do you keep referring to my "wrong assumption that OS is a must to achieve good sound making"? I assume no such thing. I simply leave it an open question. Perhaps you should too.Many people regard it highly. Not all of the them have... | |
| Which transport with my Jay's Audio DAC? celander:Here's what happens when one presses the the Nuprime CDT-8's OS button [the central one on the bottom row of the remote], and then dials up to the desired PCM OS rate, say, 48K x 2 = 96K [by pressing the right button on the bottom row]...... | |
| Which transport with my Jay's Audio DAC? Sorry, Sir [itzhak1969] forgive me for saying so, but you really don't know what you are talking about in the particular terms laid out in the OP. The OS-capable DACs I am acquainted with and discussing here, the Jay's Audio DAC and the Denafrips ... | |
| Which transport with my Jay's Audio DAC? Right, celander.... So maybe in conducting the comparison in question, you could have used a more apt DAC.Ysheesh. | |
| Which transport with my Jay's Audio DAC? Reply to itzhak1969:Sir, you insist [ as you have done before, and before, and {sigh} before] that... "Most of high end brands do not implement OS capability on their CD transports. in my opinion what Nuprime did is very unusual and totally wrong.... | |
| Which transport with my Jay's Audio DAC? So, celander, in your comparison you did not try the OS-capability of the Nuprime transport. Too bad.Thanks though. | |
| Which transport with my Jay's Audio DAC? Excellent, celander,.... at last, someone with direct experience of both transports.Can you tell me a bit more about the comparison you were able to make?What DAC did you use with them?Did you try many of the OS options [PCM and DSD] when you fed ... | |
| Which transport with my Jay's Audio DAC? You may well be correct, itzhak1969. | |
| Which transport with my Jay's Audio DAC? You may be correct, itzhak1969, about the superiority of the the Jay's/Jay's combination over the Nuprime/Jay's. I do wish that someone had actually heard them both, but that is a lot to ask.As for your general point that "bits are bits," so that ... | |
| Which transport with my Jay's Audio DAC? Interesting suggestion, itzhak1969.Let me see if I have this right. You prefer the combination of a CD transport with no OS capability whatsoever, which feeds in turn any strictly NOS DAC.Fine.Does that mean that your objection is not just to the ... | |
| Which transport with my Jay's Audio DAC? The answer to your question, garrard, was the whole burden of my OP: To get some evidence-based advice from those with experience of the likely difference in overall signal quality between 1. Using an OS transport of probably lesser quality [the N... | |
| Which transport with my Jay's Audio DAC? Right, celander. But I already made it clear in the OP that I own a Jay's Audio DAC. I don't need to "demo" one. My OP was about a possible, yet unrealized, comparison between 1. The OSing Nuprime transport and the Jay's Audio OS-capable DAC or 2.... |
