To be honest, I won't buy the Transporter, at least not right off the bat. Aside from cost, I'm skeptical that it will sound much different from an SB3+external DAC or even an SB3 alone. But what do I know. I'll wait for reports or for a hands-on demo. As for the case, that's neither here nor there for me, and I don't need or want the buttons. As for the power supply, I'm sure it's great...but I'm equally willing to bet that it is overkill. Lastly, I think it's too expensive: we're paying heavily for cosmetics and specs. I'm a little bit disappointed that they didn't come out with something simpler. -- highdudgeon SB3->Nuforce 9.02->Harbeth Monitor 30s/Skylan stands.
