Total investment in my SB3 will be less than $500 after the Bolder mods. My DAC cost me $250. If I can come extremely close to the TS in terms of SQ I will be satisfied. There is always something better and I do not want to spend the $'s for the absolute best. Now the way you talk you must have an unlimited budget so more power to you. Part of the art of being an audiophile is learning how to intelligently allocate your funds to obtain the best sound you can within certain parameters. I figure that I would be better off taking that extra $1250 and investing it in acoustical treatments or a better amp so that the end result would be better SQ than if I bought the high-priced spread i.e. The Transporter.
