Well see, I was wrong. That was not just a flippant marketing statement on the website. Gary, as others on this thread, I'd advise to try it for a week or so before you decide to mod it. I don't believe in the concept of burn-in but for some reason it did sound even better after about a week. And as I stated before, don't take that reviewer's opinion as a universal scale of what's better than what. I mean there's no accounting for taste. Here's what I do know - I just heard Dire Straits' -So Far Away-. I've heard that track so many times over the years but on the Transporter I hear all sorts of little details I've never heard before. Little ticks, subtle small sounds, etc. A reviewer noted that the Transporter seems to be very good at separating sounds, making small little things not get lost in much louder sounds. I have no idea of the technical reason for that, but I feel it's very true. When I was doing comparison tests between the SB3 and the Transporter, when I switched to the Transporter input, I got the distinct impression I was falling forward, especially if I closed my eyes. You remember the Nestea commercial? Like that. It's like the floor opened up. Again, I'm not sure what the technical reasons are for this, but clearly something unusual is going on that my brain is trying to interpret. Try it out for a week. Then you can either mod it or return it under the 30-day guarantee. My guess is, Slim hasn't received many back. -- Mark Lanctot ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mark Lanctot's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2071 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=29450 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
