What's wrong with a DVD player as a transport?


Just wondering if there is some technical reason a dvd player won't perform as well as a cd player? Also why would a changer not perform as well as a single disc player? Please answer with technical reasons. Thank You

Steve, how do u know if your sony 7700 is in "slow mode" - cant find my manual. Are u refering to the audio change on the remote?

Steve, when u mod gear for people u should set their gear up or tell them. I have had it on slow mode for i dont know how long. For those who r interested, its in the Initial setup 2(hit setup on remote) - go to audio filter - choose sharp or slow.
To access "slow mode", go to the setup menu - on screen video. One of the tabs leads you to this using the remote control to navigate.

Whites - I usually run a full diagnostic and check the modes now. You may have been an early customer, prior to when I started doing this.

I have owned the Pioneer '09 and the Sony 7700. I have the Audiomeca Enkainthus as my dac. I tried both of these as transports,only,against my Theta Data3. The main difference is in the low end of the music.It is noticable;it just ain't there--no matter what the rags say.
