In theory you have two choices: 1) use the digital loop in the Transporter to send/return to the TACT and use the TP DAC 2) use the TACT as DRC+DAC Probably worth trying both to see which you prefer. With option 1 you are not using the TACT DAC. One thing I urge you to try (for either option) is to set the SB Server to upsample EVERYTHING to 24/96 before sending it to the TP. This will force the TACT to do no ASRC internally which IMO improves the audio performance. We can explain how to do this when/if you are ready. -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal...
