Hi, Sean. Just joined the forum today, but I can't seem to get out of here, b/c I'm finding out so much! Anyways, you might have read from a different thread that I was originally considering using an expensive CD player that might serve as Squeezebox's DAC. But now, I'm convinced that I should digitize my library w/ one of the Slim Devices. I was considering the Modwright Transporter, but now, after reading your post, I don't know if I should? I am already going to go with one of the 2 integrated amps for my hi-fi system, either 1: Pathos Classic MK III, which is a hybrid with tube preamp section, or 2: Leben CS600 which is an all-tube integrated. If the Modwright would make the Transporter sound like the "Transporter w/ tube preamp," there essentially isn't a reason for me to consider this mod? -- selfdivider ------------------------------------------------------------------------ selfdivider's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=14941 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=41756 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
