Transport for Benchmark Dac1?

Posted by Awacs (A) on February 1, 2007 at 19:42:12

Hey there,

I'm narrowing my choices for a new CD source, and if I don't get a one-boxer, I might end up with a DAC-1. I'll audition it hooked up to my Classe CDP-10, but I'm going to sell that shortly thereafter.

My system: Plinius 8200mkII int, Dynaudio 1.3se, Speltz Anti in between. I'm looking for something less "smooth" and recessed, more resolving and involving. All kinds of music.

What are some good transports? Is there a lot of difference? Should I look at "audiophile" type brands only? Or should I consider cheap DVD players? Should I date my coworker if she's cute and friendly? Who do you have on Sunday, and how many points spread?

Thanks, I'm going to take the plunge soon.

Aram
