Huh?
Is the NuPrime CDT 9 Pro a Best Kept Secret?
Recently the lens fell out of my heavily moded (Musical Concepts) Pioneer PD 65 which I use as a transport, toslinked to my Audio Alchemy DPP/DAC. I glued it back in, but it won't play. I may have inserted it upside down, alas, there was no telling which way was up even wth my magnifying glass
so I am in search of a transport. The NuPrime CDT 9 Pro (MSRP $795) caught my eye, but I cannot find a review
Anybody know anything?

celander530 posts "Must be a special digital cable to prioritize that product over a transport and DAC." You missed something the toslink goes between a trans and da. Jay doesn't offer toslink |
@tweak1, I understand the significance of the toslink digital cable and its inability to be used as a digital cable with the Jay's Audio transport. I guess I would have chosen the transport and DAC for their SQ's and then obtain a compatible digital cable to mate the transport and DAC together. That you think highly of the WireWorld toslink digital cable is admirable. I am sure the NuPrime CDT-8 Pro will suit your needs quite well! |
It's been about a week and Nuprime has has yet to answer 2 messages In the meantime I came across a brand new Marantz HD CD 1, which should work quite well as a transport, and in a pinch as a decent cd player, BUT, it lacks balanced outs, which was an attraction with the Nuprime, BUT, the Nuprime is $800 an the Marantz almost half., and their remote doesn't select specific tracks Ill know soon about the Marntz. Delivery expected today, but obviously it wil require 100-200 hours break in As to toslink, there are a lot of companies offering mediocre cables, but WW is top shelf . Since my Audio Alchemy has a coax input and the Marantz a coax out, I will investigate it eventually as well |
