You're really going to go with the CEO (or whatever, now!) of the product company's opinion over one of an independent reviewer? I have no particular love for HFN, although I have long liked Townshend equipment, and Max himself. I have not heard his 565, but his earlier multiplayer (747) was terrific, and I would be deeply surprised if it were not comfortably better than the Transporter. The review seemed to give the TP a good showing, and saying it's not as good as a very different product at over twice the price is in no way a damning review. I agree that they may not have seemed to 'get' the idea of the TP, but they do generally seem to have given it a chance to shine, and I see no reason why they would have an axe to grind or other reason for bias. Also, it is never impressive when a CEO rubbishes a non-glowing review publicly, even in a fairly informal forum run by his own company. Sean has suffered a few demerit points in my book here.
