Short list of dacs for CEC TL-2X

Rcprince and Sutts, you guys are great, always helpful, insightful and fun to read !! Thankyou, and the other three Goners, Essentialaudio, Hi5harry and Platsolos.

Rx8man- no sweat- hey- does that moniker relate to your vehicle of choice? How IS that new Rx8? I have heard some good things about it- the specs on paper seem to indicate good hp/litre, but perhaps a bit lighter in torque for my liking (I drive a modified Toyota MR2 turbo).

Hi Sutts, actually my moniker was "thought about" before I had any idea Mazda was even going to bring their "own" into existance. Really when I saw the first ad for one, I was shocked, to say the least, a couple other people asked me your same question, so I guess I can call mine a "non-factory" prototype. My 91 started life as a clean, humble, hi-revving, no low torque automatic, 45K on the odometer.
Little by little, the rotary motor began to rear it's ulgy head. It began to be ever increasingly hard to start, like a "flooded condition." I ignored it as a somewhat "typical nature of the beast" and decided to drive it to my buddies muffler shop for some new tailpipes.
Well, that's where it died, on their rack, no-start ever again. So I hiked the motor and tranny out, went to Granny's Speed Shop web and got real excited. Talked to Grant, got the imfo I needed and bought a Chevy 350 V8 and an overdrive auto trans from a Monte Carlo SS. I didn't install the swap kit yet, I have a couple other finances pending, "hospital bills" yeah. Sorry to take this post way off track, but hell it's my thread !!

he-he- nice! I would be curious re: the swap. Up here in these parts, all the young guys swap Japanese motors for other Japanese motors, but not Chevy's into Mazda's!! Good luck with the project and sorry about the hospital bills- we're kidna fortunate here in Canada with some pretty good coverage in that area. Later.

I HAVE TRIED THIS CEC WITH SF D2MKII WITH GREAT RESULT.
YOU CAN FIND THIS DA ON AUDIOGON.
