I have to agree.  I ordered mine.  I thought about the Red Wine mods,
and have heard them and like them.  But the battery gave me pause from
a maintenance point of view (though I believe in the idea), I like the
better DACs in the Transporter, and as you say, it's all in one box.

I already got my companion SB3, and even though I haven't re-encoded my
music to lossless yet (it's mostly 224 AAC), and the SB3 is stock, it
already sounds better than my modded Music Hall CD 25.  I kind of
marvel at just how bad CD players really are. But you know when green
pens and isolators affect the sound there really is something seriously
wrong with the basic technology of CD players.  I say, good riddens to
the things.

BYW, how do you like your Harbeths?
