I'm a new member and I'm trying to decide whether to buy an SB3 and a DAC or a Transporter. Even with the free SB3 special, the Transporter still costs $1700. I can buy a PS Audio or Musical Fidelity DAC for about $1000. So the SB3+DAC combo is still $400 cheaper. The Transporter is no doubt a high quality piece of equipment, but so is Musical Fidelity stuff. In any case, the digital side is high-tech and will change rapidly, whereas the analog side hasn't and probably will not change significantly for a long time to come. With a separate DAC, I can junk the SB3 when something better comes up (like better wireless networking). Seems to make perfect sense to me.
I have searched this forum and cannot find this question raised previously. Is my logic flawed in some way? -- Coffee ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Coffee's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=8198 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=29124 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
