CEC TL-0 too analytical?


Hi folks,

I own a CEC TL-0 MK II CD-transport, which I bought recently here at Audiogon. It's a wonderful piece of enginering. I would describe the TL-0's sound as very detailed and analytical but there is also some lack of (midbass) warmth. It is this midbass warmth that gives gestalt to the music and that's what I miss in the
TL-0's sound. Are you agree with this? Can I add more fullness and coherence to the sound by changing digital interconnect cable? My set: CEC TL-0, Goldmund Lineal, Bel Canto DAC 1.1, Accuphase amplification, Dunlavy SC-IV.

The Audio Note people have been cited favoring their top of the line DAC with the TL-0. I have the AN DAC-3 with a CEC TL-1X. It is extremely musical, but lacks the detail I desire. TL-0 may be a nice companion.
