So, your Transporter is either connected wirelessly or via a wire to the same router, and gets the same IP address in both case? > > I knew this was going to get the "techno boinks" dander up! I'm really glad you think that having a technical understanding of electroacoustic phenomena is worthy of mockery. Just think how much richer your life would be if those troublesome "techno boinks" Dean & Sean hadn't designed and built the Slim Devices range. Regardless, what you've stated does not make sense - specifically, a wired and wireless connection will have the same volume level, all other things being equal. The fact that you reporting that there *is* a volume difference suggests that something else is different between the wired & wireless configurations. And, as Themis has already pointed out, if there's a volume difference then all bets are off - the louder one will always sound better. You will notice I am not stating that there isn't or can't be a difference in sound between a wired and wireless connection [1] but rather that the fact that you are observing a difference in volume level suggests that something else is at play here. BTW, did you *measure* the volume difference (eg. 1khz sine wave and a voltmeter) ? R. [1] I personally can't hear one. _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
