What is he thinking of doing with the SB? I, too, don't have anything intrinsically against modding. I've owned plenty of modded stuff, including a wonderful CDP from Modwright (local guy, at that). That's not the issue. The issue for me has always been that some people can be a bit gullible and spend lots of money without really understanding what is going on. The nicer PSU is a good idea. The $700 version is, well, for someone who has $700 burning a hole in their pocket. Everything within reason, eh?
As for the Transporter, I was so impressed by the SB3 from the beginning, and then further impressed by the SB3 with some cutting edge DACs, that I decided to pursue a relationship with the company. I believe in the smart, open-source develop SD uses and the fine products they produce. If these things were not facts, Logitech would not have spent a considerable amount of money in buying a small company. Again, don't take my word for it -- listen to what others, like Ben and Tom, have to say about the Transporter. I think it is a great sounding and cool looking product. However, if a person is not a "fanboy" (whatever that is...I'm assuming a poor translation of some kind, as it is not something I have ever heard in English), than why even haunt this forum? But that's another question. Do whatever you like; be happy; relax, it's about the music. tomjtx;150480 Wrote: > Also, I believe in some mods, I have a modded Bolder Elpac and I was > considering modding my SB as well before I bought the TP. > I considered the SB mod because I was so impressed by the modded > Elpac. > I respect what wayne does but I am not convinced by everything he does( > I don't hear what the Bybee is supposed to do) > I am closely watching Wayne's (Bolder) mods of his TP and would love to > hear one once he figures it all out.
