CD/Transport W/ External DAC

Ipy is right!! The cost of proper support is essential, especially with a CDP or transport.

I bought the Marantz SA-14 SACD player. After LONG breakin, it was very good, but not great. I then was advised and bought the Nueance Platform to place under it, and bingo, it turned into maybe the best player that I have experienced. It blew away my older Krell/EAD combo.

Do a search in Audiogan or AA discussion and look for the best pricing you can find.

Yep, an upgrade in my transport made one of the biggest improvements of any upgrade I ever made.

I'll jump in and say I agree with Jayctoy and Lak, I just picked up a mint TL-2X, made a pretty significant difference in presentation, easeful, relaxed and smooth as silk, put a King Cobra V-1 power cord on it and talk about soundstage, this is what I was looking for to round out the rest of my rig.

Can you guys tell me the reason why CD transport is important? It send PCM pure digital signal to DAC, isn't it? If it is true, then technically any DVD/CD player with coax or optical (toslink) output should performs same.
