So I thought my tuner weren't properly adjusted. It has not been serviced nor recently aligned, I have no proficient technicians around who I depend to let them put their hands into the tuner. The damn thing always picked up Bidat's and CEC...

Before announcing Lavry complete failure against Bidat when Lavry was driven by a CD transport I have to make a very important comment: in my case the transport was not a regular transport but the CEC-TL0, a know son of a digital bitch.
I know quit...

I might be not “getting” what you are doing but it looks to
me that it is not near close to “CEC TL0X vs Berkeley Alpha”. The Berkeley
Alpha is just an interface to get stream of DAW but CEC TL0X is digital transport. We have no idea what kind dat...

I do not know what happen between amplifier and speaker but I think matching of amplifier and speaker is one of the most important things is audio.
matching is not just about dynamics/driving or having enough power , it is about perfec...

I hope i could have a comparison between New Audio Note UK CDT-Six Transport and the CEC TL0 3.0.
Audio Note CDT-6 is not in iran and it is very expensive around 153k$ .
I hope i could have CDT-6 to compare with CEC TL0 3.0 .

Mr. Lapmpizator is a character. From a technician's standpoint, he should get credit for tearing apart the CEC transport and sorting out the SPDIF trace. Loved the disguised motor, where the costume cost more than the crappy chinese motor (new $4, le...

I have a Fosell transport for some years now I upgraded from a CEC TL-1 which was miles behind...I use an EAD 7000 III DAC which I kept after having both the 9000 and the 7000, the mian difference between them is the preamp section of the 9000, so ...

Well, I think the in this inquiry would be the use of CEC TLOX transport. If you do putting together a system from the ground up then it is arguable if it makes sense to commit yourself with CEC TLOX. This transport is from the last century and i...

Hi Romy,How about expanding the D-War and comparing the CEC transport and a PC feeding the Bidat? It should not be that difficult to rip a few CD's onto a PC. I would LOVE to hear the comparison. Using a PC would have a few advantages if the sound is...

I really can't understand how a company selling a power regeneration device priced well over 2000 or maybe 3000 USD could send you 5 units and being al them "defective". Did I miss anything here?The idea of the Kemp for the Bidat, CEC and m...

Amir,You can try to connect Toslink cable to your MacBook headphone jack, if your model supports this. In my case, it made a huge difference vs the USB interface. And then you can compare it to Toslink output from your CEC. Unfortunately, different s...

As after recent incident with my CEC I opened it ups and “fixed” the bearing I was surprised to discover in there the Audiocom’s Superclock that was sitting in there for 9 years unplugged. I just forgot it in the belly of TL0 in the past. So, if anyb...

I do not know the Lapmpizator but from what I have seen at his site I would not invest a lot into his assessment of sound. Those people, like most of those audio-DIY people, do not any sonic objectives and their actions are just a series of endl...

Oliver, I do not think you understand "faithfulness" in the same way as I do. Ironically out differences of views are not linguistics but rather in the realms of objectives and intentions.
You are right and there are a number of companies who hide t...

ArmAlex the fun thing is that you read Romy posts here without understanding his ideas and copy paste Romy instructions in your Audio system and the result is lower than those audiogon guys (an example of your audio logic -> you buy gryphon spea...

on Friday I will test CEC TL0X with MAcbook Pro/Berkeley USB to SPDIF Converter.The Berkeley Alpha USB use the Wavelength Streamlength asynchronous code. Mr.Gordon Rankin programmed these codes and sold the patent to some company like Ayre, Berkeley,...

I think DP-777 sounds best when i turn off it's Jitter correction and i use bit Perfect I mode in 16bit 44.1khz mode.I think AMR DP-777 is very very good DAC but in my idea it is a-little bold sounding if i criticize tone.It sounds clear , very clear...

I do not use flac , i just use AIFF.My friend configured voyage mpd 0.9.5 with ronalde (http://lacocina.nl/) bit-perfect script.Alix 2d2 with voyage mpd sounds not bad before break-in and after break-in i will report about the sound.I guess even go...

I am putting together a system from the ground up, and while I am almost certain that I will be getting the CEC TLOX transport, I am at a loss as where to start in terms of auditioning DACS, it having been quite some time since last bought anything d...

I spend a couple days playing with my digital, listening, measuring, trying to realize how to use it, trying to take advantage (if it exists) of my new Pacific processor. It is a true remarkable machine but the Pacific processor also highlighted to m...

Yesterday arrived the Belkin Synapse cable. I have been listening this afternoon some music, and I'm surprised how this 6ft piece of wire has been able to remove the high frequency crap. Clean, coherent, no false detail anymore... I believe it affect...

Hi Romy,[quote user="Romy the Cat"]
For the time being I decide to use the DA924 as D/A. With all beauty of DA924 I did not fine it comfortable to handle CEC TL0 and I feel that Bidat does better in there. (Although Bidat vs DA924 is VERY big and V...

I need to say that I did not do any experiments with any commercial audio equipment for a looooong time. Partially I have no needs as I do not buy anything and partially I have no interest. It is not that I have anything against commercial audio ...

It is very good that PS Audio when to the direction they went but I think those designs need to mature and the requirements for the transports like this need to be refined. I think is a year it will be more transports like this and the competition w...

Thanks Romy,I particularly appreciate the advice on the Goto issue, although a sojourn in Japan would be delightful too, come to think of it; in my experience there's no better place for culinary and audio tourism combined. "Local" support in the cas...

I came across a used TL-0 for sale yesterday (black version - looks nicer than current in my eyes). I listened to it through some 20k Accuphase amps and B&W 800D speakers, and the sound was very poor. Fortunately it sounded even worse when the TL...
