To be clear, I am talking about objectively measurable performance (SNR, jitter, dynamic range etc), which admittedly is not the be-all-end-all of perceived sound quality. However, it's a lot better than nothing! I will happily eat my hat and retract that statement as soon as I can find anything that performs better than Transporter. Also, all of the test data that I post here on the forums includes all the necessary setup information for anyone with similar measuring equipment to independently verify. For example, here is the Transporter smoking the Benchmark DAC1 and the dScope's built-in signal generator in a noise floor and jitter measurement: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=28126 I will _never_ expect you to take my word for it. Go ahead and try these tests for yourself - you don't need a $13K analyzer, you can also get useful comparative measurements with a good sound card and the RightMark software. Try blind ABX listening too. If you're going to shoot down my claim as "pure hype" then I hope you can back up your position. I've done my best to articulate mine. -- seanadams ------------------------------------------------------------------------ seanadams's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3 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
