[SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Re: SB3+DAC vs Transporter

Hi Coffee, I think you need to factor in a PSU upgrade into your SB3+DAC equation. Also, the superior remote, second display screen and greater input and output options give the Transporter greater flexibility. BTW: Has anyone tried SB3 digital out into Transporter DAC? regards -- Greg
