No. I don't have an opinion because I haven't heard the Transporter. The SB3 beats my ageing Quad 77 CD player by a very significant margin and the SB3/Beresford is as good as the XP - ASIO - Foobar - Beresford route. The SB3 without the Beresford is flat and lifeless - much worse than the Quad 77 CDP My speakers are 20 years old but but were in the Quad Electrostatic price range when bought, and listening in shops gives me no desire to buy new. The upgraded 405 seems very revealing without screaming into my titanium tweeters, so I guess the analogue chain is up to it, but will the Transported show me more at 16/44.1 lossless? Only my ears will tell me - but I am looking for an opinion from those who might have heard both on a revealing system. -- Labarum Brian Beresford DAC - Quad 405-2 refurbished by 405man - Quart 980s German Tower Loudspeakers.
