Even if one were to mod the Transporter, it seems to me there aren't that many things to change. Modders tend to first seek out through-hole caps and 8-DIP op amps, but I don't see any on the Transporter (or very few I might have missed them). The earlier poster said something about lower noise decoupling caps? There's not really that much variety with smt caps that I've seen. Assuming they are already COG, X5R, or X7R, what are we really looking to change here? There are some lower noise leaded resistors (Vishay), but I'm guessing the Transporter already has similar ones where appropriate. Maybe Sean or someone else at SD can confirm this. In some cases, especially when components are trimmed, the last thing you want to do is fool with the original design and build by swapping out chips.
