Sean, I think this one is easy so I'll take the liberty of answering even though I'm not jhm731. A lot of people have external DACs that they enjoy and more to the point they enjoy the sound of the transporter through their external DACs more than the sound of the internal transporter DAC. I know that I fall into this camp. We recognize the superior engineering in the Transporter compared to the SB3 and prefer it. But it's not inexpensive. It would be nice if there was something with some of the features that we think of as important such as good quality power supplies and BNC SPDIF outputs with digital transformers but at a lower price point. One obvious thought is that if one could throw out the DAC and analog output section and offer a Transporter-lite for say $1000 then it would give exactly the same functionality as the Transporter for those of us using external DACs and allow us to buy 2 of them. ---Gary -- GaryB ------------------------------------------------------------------------ GaryB's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3169 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=32993 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
