Sure, I do remember exchanging e-mails on TC Electronic Konnekt 8, good to hear from you! That was before I tried the CEC transport, but I still believe that the Konnekt 8 is a stunning value (15 times less than the Lessloss DAC) if you want to set up a very good computer based system. It is also good as a firewire/spdif converter.

Since then I tried Mytec 8X192 Series AD/DA converter ($4100) which is much better of course. Unfortunatelly I had sold my Mac mini by then, so I used it on a Windows based system. Sounded close to the Lessloss but more "analytical" if that makes any sense. (In the meantime I also got tired of ripping, converting, and all the rest, so I gave up completely on computer audio.)

I have 2 clocks in my LL DAC and also wordclock output, so I have 6 bitclock frequencies and 4 wordclock frequencies I can choose from. I wasn't sure what I would slave in the end, that's why I ordered these options. I'm still thinking of buying an old and cheap CD player and slave it, just to compare it to the CEC. So, the Transporter was slaved properly. In fact I put the jumpers in the wrong position once and got 48kHz out. Everybody sounded 5 years old on the records...
