I can see from photos in the Transporter system gallery that the Transporter looks more the part of an audiophile component than the SB3 or the Duet but I would like to offer a recomendation. I am a convert to Bel Canto's systems and love their sound and form factor. An under-the-hood inspection of the Transporter shows a lot of empty space that could be placed in a much smaller enclosure. Small is good. The Trends TA-10.1, Peter Daniel's Patek and the Might Mouse amp among others have busted the big is better paradigm in high end audio. Bel Canto's Reference 1000's are award winning amps and also half (or more!) the size of traditional amps. No longer do we need to have mass to have superior audio. I recommend the next Transporter be 1/2 its present size which could easily be done without sacrificing any of the elements within.
My two cents from the peanut gallery. -- Suprlite7 SB3-Bel Canto DAC3-Bel Canto Ref1000s-Gallo Reference 3.1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Suprlite7's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=5461 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43697 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
