Such as which one? The DAC1 is an excellent DAC but it does NOT beat Transporter on specs. Also, it uses ASRC, which as expected makes for OK measurements but is not universally believed to be without disadvantages in subjective sound quality. Also, note that at this level of performance, you can't really look at two manufacturer's own specs side by side and expect a difference of one or two dB to tell you much. They have to be tested on the same equipment with the same cables etc, because these tests are going to be pushing the limits of the measuring equipment itself. Benchmark's published specs were done on AP, whereas our were done on the dScope. If you are interested in how it stacks up against the DAC1 in particular, here is a test I did which deomnstrates Transporter's significantly lower jitter and noise floor. All products tested the same instrument: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=28126 BetterDAC, your posts are quite ill-informed on the whole subject. You should read up further on our products, and on DAC characteristics in general, because your controversial viewpoints don't seem to be supported by anything at all! -- seanadams ------------------------------------------------------------------------ seanadams's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=41813
