Post Subject: Bigger is Better?Posted by Paul S on: 7/20/2022
Of course we need a definition of "better" before we can say it's better, and I suppose you have that, but it seems to me it is rather a matter of "good enough", whatever that turns out to be. The urge to make a sonic change for its own sake is something else again, and this might lead us down different paths at different times in our lives. My own CD transport is relatively big and heavy (although nowhere near 240 kg!), but my DAC is small and light. Apart from the tranport mechanism, what in that transport would require a massive power supply? Sure, it is enough to say one prefers it; but why not, say, battery power for all but the rotating part, for instance? I will say, I have had zero inclination to bust open my transport to so much as look inside, apart from when I ruined a bunch of CDs by playing them in my old Volvo, and my in-home transport wouldn't track them anymore.
Best regards,
