It is certainly true for the Lavry, which is a "re-clocker" that does it right. The issue really isn't perfecting transports. So long as they are bit-perfect, they're fine; the point is perfecting the DAC and devising solid re-clocking and de-jittering schemes. This isn't just my opinion. But, for the record, I've tried the Lavry with the SB3, a moderately priced sony, and a couple very expensive CD players. I've tried it with expensive cables and a generic cable. Each and every time, the sound was the same.
So, if you're having issues with transports and cables -- and these can certainly make very audible issues with some DACs -- I would recommend spending money on a DAC that works rather than much more money on transports and cables.

In a larger room, I would move back to larger speakers, subs, and probably RCS. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ highdudgeon's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2195 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=27452 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
