New Project RS2T transport

Charles1DAD, and ipretiring:  As soon as I get a invoice from Cullen, My wife and I decided on the Cullen Crossover 2 cables 10awg.  We both choose them

independent of one another, maybe a good sign.  I'm sure the others are great also. May choose one for the LPS later to compliment the Rs2T. Providing it lasts through the 60 day trial window? For a different treat after cutting grass for 2 hrs, I listened to my IEM's which I haven't done in a long time. I forgot how good they are when you just want a quick listen, Hour or so. Hear is a taste if interested. I have an I-phone 6s coupled with an I phone camera adapter cable, attached to that is an IFI BTR5 ( if I remember correctly) headphone amp and DAC which then connects to my IEM's. (FIIO FH5 ) If you keep them WIRED rather than Bluetooth, and subscribe to Qobuz for example or Amazon HD, ( I do both) you will get an absolute treat. If it's 192 for example you will get 192, Just amazing sound. Hard to believe from an IEM. Just my 2 cents. Enjoy  Have a great weekend all. Tks again for all your help  Ps Has to remain WIRED to get that sound, otherwise just Good..

Some excellent information in this thread, thanks for the postings...

Hi,

Just checking in with you. I hope that all is continuing to go well with your RS2T. Have a wonderful weekend.

Charles1DAD, Thank you for checking in. Have about 12 hours or so invested. So far so good. My fingers are tired after crossing them so much.  I played a CD that I hadn't listened to in a while, The best of the EAGLES. Wow, couldn't get over the sound. Just awaking.  Hoping all continues well.  Thank you for your power cable suggestions, and others also. I decided to go with the  10 gauge Cullen Crossover 2 cables. My AMP ATI 6002 requires 2 cables, so it was somewhat expensive. Looking forward to receiving them and seeing what they are capable of doing? I assume a few weeks,but, who can tell anymore. I will let all know the outcome. Also starting to look at some LPS. I know you have the Fidelizer Nikola 2 and seem to really like it. That is one of my considerations, another that interests me is the LTA LPS, if that is correct? I believe roughly the same cost? There are others too. Just tipping my foot in the water at this point. Thanks again for checking in, I'll keep you posted. Robert  TN

Robert,

That is good news to hear from you. As with power cables, there are numerous good choices available with LPS. The LTA has proven to be very good according to RS2T owner feedback. I can certainly vouch that the Fidelizer Nikola II is a splendid high quality choice. 
 

Robert I’d just caution not to try to go too cheap when choosing the LPS. Definitely go for the quality. The RS2T is a first rate CD transport and in my opinion deserves an appropriately paired quality LPS. The Nikola II is a bit more expensive than the LTA, but no regrets whatsoever from me.
