An Audiophile VortexBox would be a good replacement. http://shop.smallgreencomputer.com/Audiophile-VortexBox-vbAudiophile.htm
This will get you CD ripping, music storage, and the latest LMS. Then you just need a good USB DAC and something to control the system with like an iPod touch What does a Transporter have that the Audiophile VortexBox/USB DAC does not? - That cool VFD screen! What Audiophile VortexBox/USB DAC have that that Transporter does not? - 24/192 support (36/384 support if your DAC supports it!) - DSD support - CD Ripping and storage - All in one solution (no PC required) - Still being sold and supported by the manufacture The cost would be around $675 for the VortexBox + $200 to $1500 for a good DAC. So your total cost could be less then the original transporter depending on the DAC you select. rip, tag, get cover artÂ… All you do is insert the CD! http://vortexbox.org agillis Lead Developer VortexBox ------------------------------------------------------------------------ agillis's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=21140 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=100948
