An external DAC is probably around .5-1K and the transporter is a 2K product. So there is a big hole between the $300 SB3 and the Transporter. This is what the modders are trying to cater to. I myself have not done any mods. I think there should be some improvements going the mod route. I dont believe (with due respect to Sean) that a stock product cannot be improved. Who knows SD themselves may come out with a New and Improved SB3 or a higher end SB3. In which case, many of us will spring for it. It is just a matter of mindframe and confidence in the modders if you want to take that approach. BTW, I am using a SB3 with a Panasonic XR55. Seems like a good budget approach to high-end sound.
