In Reply to: I have a Flatfish, which is the big brother to the Shig. posted by chris keating on March 9, 2007 at 11:47:19:
The Shig is a top-loading transport only, made out of folded metal attached to a stone base. it does not have the locking capability of the VRDS which is a 'normal' cdp/transport. however, depending on your taste and preference, the Shig could be a good choice, but the cost.i did like it's reproduction when paired with its own DAC but has never heard it with another. it is rather queer to that if you load a CD, say, with 10 tracks, and you load another one afterwards with 15 tracks, the 5 tracks are not read unless you reset... annoying. also, the plastic remote is out-of-place for its price. in other words, i find it hard justifying the expense for this metal-sheet-with-stone ware, but i will definitely give it a try with my SFDAC-2.
the VRDS is adapted by Wadia, this i know, and very 'hi-end' in nature and functionality.
short: give both a try with your Altmann DAC & judge by ear (and looks).
