Price Reduced! I am downscaling my audio-only system, and thus, I am offering for sale this beautiful, very rare, one owner classic CD Transport from the mid-'90s Golden Age of CDs: the Theta Digital Data Basic. This carefully handled piece of gear has been impeccably cared for throughout its life and shows it, with no significant cosmetic blemishes. It very recently obtained a $300 repair of its CD drawer mechanism, which after restoration now works like new. (I am also offering for sale on this site the Data Basic's companion DAC, the Theta Digital DS Pro Basic II with separate Timebase Linque Conditioner, which also look and sound great). The product will be shipped including its remote control and Owners Manual in the original shipping box from Theta. The Theta Digital Data Basic originally sold for $1,750. It weighs 18.5 lbs. and measures 17"x3.25"x15". It features a coaxial digital output via RCA jack. Reviewer Robert Harley, writing in "Stereophile", said: "The Data Basic had a clean, open and very dynamic character." It possessed a "full, robust and well-defined bass presentation" and was "superb in conveying the music's rhythmic elements. Music had a powerful, dynamic expression that was extremely compelling. Bass drum had plenty of slam and weight, and musical climaxes were reproduced with a sense of effortlessness." I could not agree more. After all these years, the Theta Data Basic remains one of the most enjoyable and musically impressive pieces of audiophile equipment I have ever owned.
