As title... AND how does the digital-out perform...

I have the Transit and the Waveterminal, and the Waveterminal sounds great with an amp, or plugged into my external DAC. The Transit alone isn't a huge difference from the headphone out. Apple headphone outs are not too bad actually. The Transit will sound a bit brighter and slightly more detailed, but their is something with the sound that isn't quite right to my ears. When I went to the U24, I got a much fuller sound with greater detail, balance and soundstage. Just my $.02. If you are still wanting to buy a Transit, PM and I will sell you mine at a good price. dshea |
