Wow! What a difference! After a whole day rearranging furniture, I have now achieved something I never thought possible. The sound is sublime, detailed, powerful, full of life, capturing all the nuances of the original performance. Some tracks, recorded well (the Stones track, Love in Vain from Let it Bleed is a good example), are just unbelieveable - I can (I know this sounds dead corny, but its true) close my eyes and Mick, Keith and the boys, still in their 20s, are playing there just for me! I have never heard anything like this - even from a system costing over £300,000 I once sat and listened to that had so many tubes in the multiple amps that the owner listened to it in his vest in a vain attempt to keep cool." So, you have to re-arrange the furniture for the Transporter to sound better than the SB3! Sorry, but this sounds like a load of audiophile b*****ks to me!
