Perhaps I should clarify/recap: have a touch and recently had it modded. I found that it could not apparently play 24/96. In a fit of pique ( or whatever) I purchased a transporter. I then find myself wondering whether it will be any better than what I have. (assuming 24/96 prob soluble). I guess I would be happy to ditch the DAC for an improvement. Anyway I take your point that if disappointed I could always sell on... -- adamdea ------------------------------------------------------------------------ adamdea's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=37603 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=81701 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
