CD TRANSPORT THAT MAKES AN AUDIBLE DIFFERENCE

"Bits are bits. Even a 50c computer drive can read at <1 error per million.

Spend all your dough on DA converters. That’s where the evil of digital lies"

Funny, when I purchased a Mojo Audio EVO DAC Ben the man behind Mojo Audio asked me what transport I would be using with it,. I told him a Cambridge CXC. He responded, if you really want to hear the performance of the EVO consider upgrading the transport. He doesn’t sell CD transports so his comment wasn’t a sales pitch , rather it was advice from someone who has intimate knowledge of digital. He was spot on.

Sold my Cambridge CXC v2 transport, selling my CD collection and ripped CD’s that are unavailable for streaming…Done!  On my systems streaming sounded better and offers so much more.  

I still have about 1600 CD’s and am using an Audiolab CDT with a Denafrips Pontus ll. My next purchase is going to be a DDC. Haven’t decided which one yet. 

 

Using Marantz SA-8004 into MHDT Orchid. I am sure it could go somewhere, but might take other upgrades too. 

Is it true that the project has quality control issues? I have seen a number of comments to that effect.
