Is there a transport-DAC system available for SACD. If so, how much are we talking? I like breaking up my expenses. So, I was planning that my next big investment be a nice SACD. If I buy a transport, can I hook it up directly to a good processor? Thanks Sincerely A. Mani (Sub)
Accuphase offers such a product, but alas, since there is no format standard, you must buy the matching Accuphase DAC. They use two digital outs to transfer the monstrous signal. Cheers!
We just got in the new DCS Verdi CD/SACD transport. The interface is a IEEE1394 (Firewire). This is the interface of choice according to Sony.
The Verdi will play standard CDs and SACDs. When connected to a DCS Delius DAC or Elgar DAC, the clocks can be linked as well which further improves the standard CD playback.
