Somthing that dossent seem to sink in was that i use the transporter as transport only. Meaning i connect the transporter to a dac via the digital output on the transporter bypassing the analog section in the TP. The transporter i have was moddified only in the digital part not the analog Meaning that if used as people normaly would meaning connecting it straigh to power amps or there preamp it would not be superior to the stock one. The guy that keep saying that he heard no diffenrece compared it in setup where he used it as a normal player meanning it uses that dac and analog part inside. The person was so obssest in beleiving that the aberdeen transporter is a froud that he never answered if he had tried using it as a transport only. this is starting to anoye me but as transport only in was hands down much better then the stock one the difference was massiv there where absolutly nothing to be uncerten about eny one that where here said the same thing. I have had many bad experinces with expensiv cables vs cheap one so much that i must admit that i think the whole cable industri is one big froud. If there had been even the slightes possibility that i had been wrong with the improvment in the transporters i would never had spend this much time defending it. Remember very important i use it as transport only and there for cant comment on the other skeptic users findings wich where using the analog side also. When that is said I just thing its a sad shame that people dont just trie it for them self in my system the digital mod was godsend when it removed all that i diddent like about it stock one and im amazed that i listen to unglarissh sound in a all digital system every time i listend. No cable power conditioners or other tweaks can give you that. thanks -- harmonic ------------------------------------------------------------------------ harmonic's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=6879 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=36950 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
