Just to clarify, you upgraded from an SB2/Benchmark to SB2/Lavry and then to a transporter? And that the transporter 'has gobs more detail...' than the SB2/Lavry combo? Was the Lavry 'better' than the Benchmark?
I'm a little surprised that you hear such a difference between the Lavry and the Transporter. I use a Lavry DA10/Duet connected to pair of AKG K701s and they sound phenomenal to me. Of course, I've never heard the transporter - maybe I should do a test drive of the transporter.
