Differences between cd transports?

astelmaszek"What audio tweakers fail to understand that not a single of these things make a damn bit of a difference at audio frequencies."

Do you base this claim, proclamation, and pronouncement on personal, first hand experience, experiments, and analysis or are you simply repeating a religious doctrine as has become so common this site recently?

Like clean power, feeding a CD playback system with a clean disc will almost always result in improved SQ.

apples and oranges. Data is not the same as the many nuances involved with hi-end audio reproduction

It is up to the designer to know their science. I have seen raw cable tested for directionality resistance. It matters

Although optical cable is not directional, the quality of the finishing of the cut is critical for music. Hi-end optical cables ends are highly polished using high powered microscopes

Aside from my coax, all my components are balanced, and although many tout that XR is only for long runs, I can hear the difference between a 0.5m and a 1.0 meter cable

No...... You can't..... No one can, Sir.

@tweak1 directionality resistance with AC current? I assume you rapidly flip your cables...
