Thanks for the very comprehensive answer. I appreciate that you took the high road and didn't bash my equipment, you just elucidated possible issues. Sounds like I need to be really careful any time I'm pairing transports to DACs.
What is PLL?
If a transport has jitter issues, does it tend to be the same amount on SPDIF vs. Toslink. I'm of the belief that SPDIF is usually better, so this is what I was using when I happened to notice better sound from the less expensive transport. Is it possible that there would be better performance around jitter if I try Toslink on my more expensive Toshiba...or do both signals tend to perform the same?
Lastly, as another person had posted...do you think it's possible that other systems matching issues (not having to do with jitter) could cause one transport to sound better than another with a particular DAC? I think something was said about signal level, not sure.
Thanks!
PS: ...one more thought, I'm seriously thinking about purchasing a Lavry. I think my decision to not keep it after auditioning it last year may have been short-sighted. It sounded great, yet I was so busy around the holidays and wasn't sure I had confirmed ALL aspects of the sound were top-notch. Do you happen to know if the Lavry DA10 has circuitry that would help in my situation...such as you had mentioned...ASRC, PLL, etc.?
