That's the wrong conclusion! The key word here is "cost"! Sean says that the SB is built to a certain cost. He clearly doesn't think a super-SB for double the price will interest enough audiophiles. The Transporter, on the other hand, is built to impress audiophiles (although it looks more like it's build to impress studio technicians for some reason). Now, if you don't really want a big box for big bucks, and care more about sound quality than posing credentials, you may well want to sink a few hundred dollars more into the SB to take it to another level. There is nothing wrong with that -it just isn't part of SD's strategy. -- P Floding ------------------------------------------------------------------------ P Floding's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2932 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=26337 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
