I'd like to make an observation about the change in attitude we've seen from Sean. Not very long ago, his postings were just about as friendly as you could possibly hope to read. His tolerance of pretty much every tweak and mod to the SB, no matter how nutty, was absolutely remarkable. Recently, and particularly in this thread, he seems to have become just a little - how do I put this? - pissed off. And I can quite understand why.
>From what I've been able to gather, Sean has worked his nuts off for several months to engineer the Transporter to be the finest device he could possibly build. It's his baby, and he probably feel very protective towards it. So it's no wonder that when he starts hearing about proposed modifications that, due to his intimate knowledge of how the TP works, he is pretty damn sure are likely to actually degrade it, he's gonna start being just a little less than polite to those who are in some ways threatening his baby. What's more, if a lot of modded Transporters start appearing on the scene, and they turn out to be inferior to the stock item (as it seems Sean is fairly certain they will be), then it's going to hurt the reputation of the Genuine Article(tm). I for one feel for Sean - I get the impression that he would *really* like to let rip, but basic courtesy is making him bite his lip. -- cliveb Performers -> dozens of mixers and effects -> clipped/hypercompressed mastering -> you think a few extra ps of jitter matters? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cliveb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=348 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
