What a load of absurd nonsense! Why shouldn't it be possible to improve on the SB? Do you really believe the Transporter to be so different? And, if so, in what way would this difference make such a difference to the sound? Also, the Benchmark isn't jitter "rejecting". That's just hype. -- P Floding ------------------------------------------------------------------------ P Floding's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2932 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=29450 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
