Theta vs Ayre

Your kidding right? You would deny that system a DaViD II Transport. Not in this life time :~)

I too have the Casablanca II with Extreme DACs. I recently acquired the Ayre D-1x and it has worked terrifically in my system. I consider the Ayre a major upgrade from my previous Theta transport the Jade. I suspect the new David II will easily compete with the D-1x as they are in the same price range. Not heard the David II, I'd expect it to work very well with the Casablanca II.
