You are the only one to answer, so I really appreciate it.  I was
getting worried, as one main reason I ordered Transporter was to
replace a preamp in the chain.  I got spooked reading a thread in this
forum from a day or two ago that talked about the problems with digital
volume controls and seemed to indicate the Transporter would behave much
like a passive preamp.  But you are saying it is active and should sound
like an active preamp?
