Hi. I've been a fan of squeezebox for a long time. I started buying the original Slimp3. I also own a Radio, a Boom and a Squeezebox2 and Squeezebox "classic." Now that the Transporter SE is out and has fallen in my price range, I'm very tempted to purchase it. The AVR I'm using is a Yamaha RX-A3010. I have my Squeezebox "classic" (v3) hooked up to it via the coaxial output.
Please excuse this naive question: Am I gaining anything (other than looks and a better power supply) by upgrading to a transporter. As I understand it, the main advantage of the transporter is the DAC. If my receiver does not have balanced audio input, and, instead I used the optical or coaxial outputs, I would bypass the DAC and not get any of the sound enhancements of the Transporter. Am I correct? I really like the look of the Transporter, but if I don't gain any advantage in sound quality, then I guess purchasing one is foolish. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
