Theta Data II -Is it a forward sounding transport?

I own a Theta Data II transport - Do others find it forward sounding? Any other transport recommendations? Thanks.

To get the best sound some cones or Vibropods are must. I have tried a few and find DH Golden Sound Super cons the most natural and musical of all. Check it out. http://www.dhcones.com/cones.html Good luck

The "forward sound" you are talking about may not be caused by Theta Data II at all. It also could depend on your digital cable..

It was a general question as I know some have told me that there are better transports and that it can be a forward sounding player. I have not found that to be the case per se, but am interested in the possibility of upgrading my transport.

Theta is back to excellent standards - stands are critical.
