| Schiit URD CD Transport SOON? which does sound better but not superior Humm, isn't something that is better by definition superior to the other thing? Seems like it to me. | |
| Jay's Audio CD Transport Repair The Jay’s CDT2-MK3 uses the Phillips CDM4/19 disc drive. I’ve "heard" that you can easily DIY repair this. There are some available online. I found this one on AliExpress. I’ve had pretty good luck ordering stuff like this from China on AliExpress... | |
| Schiit URD CD Transport SOON? Schiit used to offer a product called Etr... get it, Schiit Etr? So childish, but OK. I have one and it served one purpose... a DDC. So, you input USB and get S/PDIF and maybe an AES-EBU connection output. The Etr had Coax and Toslink outputs. If... | |
| Innuos PULSE Mini? dcpillai Have heard good things about the Pro-Jest RS2T CDT with its next-gen CD system. Do share your findings if you are able! I too am a lucky CD Transport owner - I’ve got the Jay’s Audio CDT2-MK3 - and I’d assume the Pro-Ject is del... | |
| BEST CD TRANSPORT Good: I've had the Cambridge Audio CXC... it was good. Better: I got the Audiolab CDT6000... it was better Best: I now have the Jay's Audio CDT2-MK3... it's fantastic! All three using the same DAC and cables. The new Schiit URD transport is no... | |
| DAC Under $3000 Top choices besides the Schiit Yiggy would include: Holo Audio Spring 3 KTE $3,000 Denefrips Venius II 12th $3,100 MUSICIAN Pegasus $3,200 Chord Qutest - it’s been on the market for the longest and has increased in price to over $2K but is ava... | |
| Schiit URD CD Transport SOON? audphile1 There’s no planned release date. It was on display just for Schiits and giggles. Any yet, now, it's available for purchase a mere 18-days after your insightful comment. | |
| New, Very Interesting CD Transport I was interested in this but bought the Jay’s Audio CDT2-MK3. I’m not interested in anything else now. The Jay’s is fantastic. | |
| When Will the DAC Singularity Be Reached? Objectivists always see the world in black and white terms. There are no grays, no preferences and no hierarchy of qualities. It tests good - on the tests we apply to the item - so it must be good. If this thinking was verifiably true everything ... | |
| When Will the DAC Singularity Be Reached? Better DAC topology, better power supplies, better clocks, better components, better pre and post analog stages and better input types all have a huge impact on what we universally call a DAC. It could be true that all digital to analog converters... | |
| New Jays Audio flagship cd transport Upsampling on a CDT2? I did not know that was available. Not sure if I would use it, but it seems to be worth a try. I have the CDT2-MK3. I’ll have to take a closer look at my remote. Have any of you played with this? Is there any further discus... | |
| Cambridge CXC > Audiolab 6000CDT > Jay's Audio CDT2-MK2! I have 800 CD ripped at 16/44.1 into ALAC/FLAC and stored on a SSD drive. However, I prefer the CDs to the rips. System is Naim Supernait3 integrated, SoTM SMS200 Ultra Network Streamer with SoTM SP500 power supply, Chord Qutest DAC with Sbooster... | |
| Cambridge CXC > Audiolab 6000CDT > Jay's Audio CDT2-MK2! @mesch I bought mine used (on A’gon) so it was broken in. However, when I first plugged it in and started listening the strong controlled bass immediately made itself known. But other than more and better controlled bass I didn’t hear a lot of dif... | |
| Cambridge CXC > Audiolab 6000CDT > Jay's Audio CDT2-MK2! Don’t feed the trolls… especially the well know trolls that post here all the time. They aren’t worth the effort. | |
| Schiit URD CD Transport SOON? I'd agree... if it was not displayed at a major HIFi show in the manufacturer's booth 2-weeks ago - but it was on display. |
