It's not really glossy, but more like "brushed" metal. And the problem with brushed metal is that if you'll touch it, the oil from your fingers gets into those micro-grooves in the metal and it's very hard to remove/wipe away. See picture attached. You can also see the dust partially wiped, in front of MiniDSP that sits on top of Transporter. 29634 +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Filename: FingerPrint_Transp2.jpg | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=29634| +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Aleksander's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=33093 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=107045 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
