Thinking of buying a new CD player. Namely the Rega Saturn. But then looked in to CD transports. As my pre-amp has a DAC fitted. Then I noticed the extra outputs. A COAX and a fibre optic on my Rega Apollo CD. Using the COAX improved things. Has/is anybody using the fibre optic output cable? What's the supposed benefits of that output?

 

[Gazelleer]

It is just another interface to choose from. But maybe galvanic isolation with certain DACs that are susceptible to that?

You could also keep the Rega Apollo and buy a separate DAC that you like better that the built-in DAC of your preamp or the one in the Apollo. I can heartily recommend the Chord.

In the autumn, my interest tends to move from bikes and cars to hi-fi. My Aura Va100 amp was playing up, so have had a reshuffle.

I had an old 80s Valve preamp by Rose Industries in the cupboard leftover from an Audio Innovations valve set up years ago. I’ve just reinstated the Rose feeding a Creek A43 power. Oh my.

That’s led to the addition of an Arcam CD73 with the Wolfson chipset (beats the DPA bitstream DAC) and a set of Quad 21l floorstanders. TT is old faithful Systemdek with modded RB250.

Great fun re listening to everything and picking out new details.
