No, what I'm saying is that different transports may or may not mangle the data. Almost all transports work perfectly at redbook (44/16), although errors may result because of the condition of the CD itself and any dust particles that are in the optical system. Each transport has its own method of dealing with a read-errors, and the data may be modified as a result.

That is based on our phone conversations and info from this thread. I also own two of the DVD players on your transport test list. (Oppo and Pioneer). I did my own listening tests comparing those two budget players as transport to some cd transports that costs ten times more. They seemed to sound the same to my ears when they were hooked up to the DAC1. But are you telling us now that different transports affect the performance of DAC1 more than we were led to believe? I thought that was one of the strong selling point of DAC1. I am still very happy with my DAC1pre though. Keep up the good work. Paul |
