This is the right thing to do, as you have "promised" Transporter as a
product for audiophiles.  We audiophiles are well-accustomed (in fact
even relish) the bit of extra care and feeding necessary to use
audiophile gear.  We are well aware of the fact that you can do
something stupid and destroy an amp or speaker.  To make a design
"idiot proof" at the peril of sonic performance might well be
unforgivable in this crowd. 

Plus, I think you would find that there are many audiophiles like me
with mono amps positioned close to speakers.  These folks are often the
ones who live and breathe this stuff, and are the opinion leaders in the
great cyber knowledge base out there.  If their stuff doesnt sound good
with Transporter, rightly or wrongly, Transporter will quickly get the
reputation of not sounding good, period.
