Making progress... I have ordered a Transporter and will give an update as soon as I get it. While there were a lot of choices for upgrading the DAC of the SB, the decision for a new amp is maybe even harder. But this does need to be upgraded. I may have a source for Bryston at a favorable price, and I have a friend of a friend that makes tube amps. So maybe a Bryston 4BSST2 for the bottom end (300wpc at 8ohms) and a smaller tube amp for the upper end. Not really sure, still doing a lot of homework.
The integrated amp solution is not as appealing as I don't really need a preamp, and the Kappa's really should be bi amped, and need a lot of high current power from what I hear. I will keep the Infinity Kappa 9's, as they are probably the strongest part of the system. Thanks for all of the input. -- John_Dumke ------------------------------------------------------------------------ John_Dumke's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9709 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=66754 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
