I was obviously referring to the various controls on different types of components. No, a DVD player has no volume knob, but it also doesn't function a a preamp and has many other buttons. I have many TACT pieces. Unless you are using them as amps, they most certainly have a voume dial. Amps don't need controls, tht's what preamps are for. So you believe being exclusively dependent on a remote control would be better for the Transporter? So that everyone is forced to use a remote? You think that being forced to use a remote is required for something to be "revolutionary"? Why not just give both options as they have. Not everyone wants to be tied to a $25 universal remote. By the way, if you love remotes so much, why not get a better one? And why do you keep calling the Transporter revolutionary? Does SD use that in their marketing somewhere? -- Sleestack *headphone:* singlepower sds-xlr at, esoteric d-03/p-03, hd650, k701 & sony qualia *2 channel:* tact rcs 2.2.xp w/ full aberdeen mods, bel canto oneref. 1000 monoblocks x 4, aberdeen northstar transport, epiphany 12-12s (waiting for my 20-21s), tact w210 corner load subs *5.1 channel:* tact tcs mkii w/ aberdeen power supply, tact boz 216/2200 (x5) w/ aberdeen power supply, tact adc6 w/ full aberdeen mods, denon 5910, bel canto pl-1a, eggleston andra ii (x5), velodyne dd-15, panaonic th-65pf9uk ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sleestack's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=6598 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=30243 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
