No argument there. The SB2 sounded great in my system (analogue outputs directly driving a pair of ATC SCM100A active monitors). I don't think many people around here would dispute that SCM100As are very revealing speakers. But the Transporter is just fabulous in comparison.

Once you've acclimatised to the slightly warmer frequency balance of the TP, the basic sound characteristic is very similar to the SB, except that you're constantly amazed at the extra texture that nearly all instruments have. In audiophile jargon, it really is like having a veil lifted (several veils, in fact).

If you buy one by mail order, distance selling law means that you are entitled to return it within some period of time (I think it may be 7 or 14 days) if you don't like it. Of course, it has to be returned in as-new condition, and you'll not get the carriage refunded. -- cliveb Performers -> dozens of mixers and effects -> clipped/hypercompressed mastering -> you think a few extra ps of jitter matters? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cliveb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=348 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=31311 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
