Unlike other members of this forum & their favorite reviewers, I have the greatest respect for Mr.Rowland & Mr.Wilson's work, but once again the Ayre you and JA have is not a high end transport. Here's a short list of high transports that you or JA could use to evaluate the SB3's performance as a transport: Zanden 2000 CEC TL-0X Metronome Kalista; T2-i Signature; and T2-A Esoteric P-0, P-01, P-03 EMM Labs CDSD 47Labs PiTracer Weiss Jason Accustic Arts Drive 1 Ensemble Dirondo Wadia 270se Aberdeen NorthStar I use a modified Theta Jade, and I can hear a large difference, as did the NY Rave group when they heard the Aberdeen NorthStar. Please explain to me how the the Lavry or any other "reclocking DAC" can repair the damaging effects of jitter after the fact? Also, please explain the effects of bandwidth, common mode noise reduction, risetime, EMI, inductance, capacitance, pulse aberration,and shielding on a digital transport's interface.
