Transport for MHDT Havana

Audiojan,
You and Gopher are correct, a transport's quality is a major factor in the overall sound.Some have suggested that it is more important than the DAC.Don't know your budget but a used PS Audio PWT is musically excellent, the CEC is a good recommendation also.Computers are obviously an alternative, but some don't want to bother with this approach and setting it up.
Regards,

First time I could spend some serious time with the Havana and IMPRESSED doesn't even come close. First time digital is getting close to the analog purity that I so wanted. Live records sounds like.. live!

This thing definitely needs a dedicated transport... Using my Oppo BD95 right now but that's going back in the HT.

So, I've decided. It'll be a CEC TL1. I heard one of those years back and really liked how that sounded. Granted, it was with Thiel CS7.2, driven by some very large and expensive VTL's, but that sound was glorious. My experience with the Havana so far has really moved me much, much closer to that and once the CEC get's here, I really hope that is yet another step towards that.

Audiojan...I think you'll really like the TL1. I have a TL2 and it's the best transport I've ever had in my system.

I have a TL-2X with a couple mods from here, which takes these transports to an esoteric level, without changing any of their inherent, original character.
