Which is better: Transport+DAC or PC system+DAC

Hi, be careful, you have a killer good digital system already. You may find better power cords, isolation or interconnects more effective...

May i ask what is the rest of your system?

So you have a excellent system...congratulations, now I can see why you might want more than the dCS Puccini+Uclock (which I used to own).

The dCS Scarlatti's, used prices are great, is a killer upgrade for you. Last year I traded in my Puccini/uclock and for a Scarlatti stack...

I think you will find a transport still the better sound. I've tried it several times and really no contest. Are you into SACD? if so, not sure all your choices above allow it.

What about dCS Vivaldi? It's pricey, but in the context of your system should be considered...

Hi Personally, I am into SACD listening. Nearly 100% SACD. Anything else I listen to vinyl. I think SACD is where the dCS shines above all...

I'll get to listen to the dCS Vivaldi soon...by all accounts this is a big step up...

I have heard the MSB set up on 2 occasions...both with Rockport speakers...it is certainly a killer digital front end...one had a pre amp, the other the MSB DAC went straight the amps...

If SACD isn't what you're listening to..the choices do open up a lot...
