[SlimDevices: Audiophiles] New Meridian CD player Transporter question
Hi All, I am awaiting delivery of my new Meridian G08.2 cd player and am wondering if there would be any benefit from connecting it to my TP as opposed to using the anologue outs direct to my amp ? any thoughts on this ? -- pkfox When the going gets weird - the weird turn pro.

Is not such a fine player overkill for a digital transport ? Try out to what you like best the G08 is said to sound very good and TP is a good DAc decisions decisions :) Connect analog to amp AND digital to tp then you can have both so that you can just switch with remote(s) . Note that comparing can be hard if the output level is not the same, the louder will sound best usually (the mind fools you), so just try to level match when comparing -- Mnyb Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 and assorted amps SiriuS, Classe' Primare and Dynadio speakers, Contour 4 Contour Center, and Contour 1.3SE for the rear ch.

Good idea connecting to both - do you mean the TP shouldn't be used just as a DAC - that will never happen in my house I use it as my main source of music - the cd is for my wifes use. I was merely wondering if the TP's DAC might be superior but I've heard the G08 is very good to - watch this space - thanks very much for your input. -- pkfox When the going gets weird - the weird turn pro.

My wife has an aversion to using the TP - she also enjoys the ritual of searching for a cd and putting it on - she also has 2000+ CDs - go figure :-)~ -- pkfox When the going gets weird - the weird turn pro.
