Transport, for now, will be either a Sony NS500V DVD/SACD player or an Oppo 970 (I own both).
A better transport would be a future consideration.
thanks,
Jon

Sorry in advance for the cross-forum posting (I asked this question at AudioAsylum, but got minimal feedback).
I'm vacillating back and forth between stand alone players, e.g., the Rega Apollo, Marantz 8100, Cambridge Audio Azur 840C, etc., and an outboard DAC, such as the Lavry DA-10 and the PS Audio Digital Link III.
While I have heard many good things about all of these sources, I'd like to know if anyone has had a chance to actually compare them head to head. I'm especially interested in how the Lavry compares to one of the aforementioned units. Thanks much.
