One problem I see here is that too many of you who are quick to poo-poo mods are holding up the stock Transporter sound as something sacred and/or correct. All it is is the house sound. It's what Slim Devices came up with at their price/profit point. I have one. It is an excellent neutral sound.
For the tube naysayers, I'm betting you've never lived with a good modern tube rig. It's many people's natural instinct to feel it is antiquated technology. But with modern capacitors and transformers, tube amps can be world-class with none of the faults associated with early designs. Remember, the tube is still one of the most linear amplification devices known and is still used in numerous military and satellite technologies. And believe me, they don't use them because they sound "warm" As for the measurement crowd, all I can say is if you can hear a difference and you can't measure it, then you're measuring the wrong thing. -- barty ------------------------------------------------------------------------ barty's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10121 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=38106 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
