Anybody really serious about "high end" can team it up with a top notch DAC and get 99% (or more) of the audio quality available from the Transporter.
I think we will have to be happy with that as Logitech are not a high-end audio company. I think Andy and co must have accepted that SqueezeBox's future was as a mass market product if Logitech took over. Already I think the Transporter is no longer a "current" model and they are simply using up their parts stock. Once they have used up all the parts they will stop making it and that will be that. I am (probably vainly) hoping that they might do a "dumb" version of the Transporter - a sort of super-Receiver with all the high quality network and audio hardware/connectors but without the big box, buttons and VFDs. Most serious buyers would have either a Controller or iPeng anyway. -- TheLastMan Matt *SqueezeBoxes:* SB Duet (Controller + two receivers) *Server:* Synology Diskstation 107+ NAS (with firmware 2.3-1157) running Squeezebox Server 7.5.1 on Synology Package Manager *Network:* Netgear DG834GT ADSL modem/router, 2 x Buffalo WHR-HP-G54 as access points *Livingroom:* Receiver into Naim 42/110 amp, B&W CM2 speakers *Kitchen:* Receiver into Denon DM37 mini-system, B&W 686 speakers *Study:* Linn LP12, Naim 72/Hi-cap/Headline.
