That's the current theory, according to message #10 earlier in this thread. That would allow the transporter to get full resolution while still allowing an SB3 running from the same server to work. One odd thing is that when I was evaluating the Transporter against my SB3, I would stream 96/24 FLAC, synchronize both devices to the same stream, and switch back and forth to evaluate them. The SB3 would slowly drift out of synchronization with the Transporter - I don't know if this was because of imprecision in the SB3's internal clock or some other mechanism, but this only seemed to happen with 96kHz material. Another concern about 96kHz playback on the SB3 is that while the program material is "converted" to 48kHz, it hasn't been filtered at 24kHz to prevent anti-aliasing. I did some comparisons between 96kHz files played straight to the SB3 vs the same file converted to 48kHz in Adobe Audition using proper low-pass filtering. The converted file was a teensy bit less bright in the treble, but I actually preferred listening to the unconverted file.
