More likely explanations are: a) The price was lowered significantly because of the loss of front panel functionality. b) It's a short-lived clearance item just to sell some leftover components. It's also a product that is a number of years old and whose market has been significantly reduced by the Touch's 24/96 capability and the rave reviews that it's received for sound quality. Probably would be difficult to sell any more for $2k even if they had knobs. > What about functionality of the front panel buttons ? >From Andy's answer above, they're still there and they still function. Many of them have no use without having the knob to scroll through menus, though. (I never use the knob either. I was just playing with it and the front panel buttons to see what they do and completely locked up the Transporter. I suspect that the front panel functionality hasn't gotten a lot of use or testing over the years.) -- JJZolx ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=84281 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
