I have the transporter and I really like it. I had to make a few changes to add some euphonics to the set up. I am still tweaking my capacitors and am heading toward oils for the t-amp. I added some obligattos to my maggies and they really helped.
The transporter is great BUT it tends to be a bit on the clinical side. Very clean and accurate - but it needs a bit of color. The Modwright cures that with tubes. I think that is a bit of an overkill but if you are into tubes anyway it could be a good go. You could probably compliment the transporter very well with solid state gear but you have to be a little selective. I'm not sure there is an easy answer to your situation! - The more tweaking I do the more I feel like I want to do! Thats part of the hobby. Sometimes small changes can make a big difference. Like gutting your gear of its crappy wires and replace with silver. It doesnt cost a lot and a large bang for the buck. You have to start with something that already is "good" in an entry level sort of way. Every manufacturer cuts corners to save cost. Sometimes even just a $10 run of silver wire can make a larger difference. -- earwaxer Waxer Transporter Winsome labs mouse Maggie MMG's (modified) JPS Labs power cords Audioquest Granite speaker wire Silver Bullet interconnect HSU research sub ------------------------------------------------------------------------ earwaxer's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=32040 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
