Transport for ML360S?

Hi Ralee,
I use a 360s with the 9000es as my transport with Transparent Reference digital cable and this combo sounds great. My next upgrade will be to try ML37 as transport.
I Know this is going to be better but I don't know by what
margin, and also what differences between the two. Good
Luck

I don't have a 360s, but I do have a 36. I can say the ML 37 is a much better transport compared to the 9000es, but I don't have 24/96 capability. My 9000es is still breaking in, but so far, my redbook CD's (played with the 36/37 combo) are much better than the SACD. Please take this with a grain of salt--because according to many threads the Sony needs 200 hours of break in. Mine is only 25% of the way there. I'll try to remember to give an update once it has broken in.

I gave up waiting for the SACD section to sound better than the cd digital output decoded by a separate decoder.
I use an MSB link dacII and it still KILLS the SACD from the Sony analog outputs!!!!!!!!! I guess I expected too much from the Sony. The best transport I've tried is the one from SimAudio, the Moon series "Eclipse CD Player".

It has a suspension that floats the disk drive in elastic bearings.

Hi Ralee; For CD playback, I use a ML 37 transport with ML 360S DAC-- a tremendous and highly recommended combination for CD playback. And of course, the 360S DAC will already decode 24/96 signals. To connect these two, I use a Cardas AES/EBU digital cable. Cheers. Craig.
