Since it never happened to me I don't know for sure, but my
understanding was that it was just a mechanical noise and it didn't
affect the audio outputs. The owner would be sitting quietly without the
TP even playing and they'd hear a "brrr" as the knob de-gaussed.

Sorry, no I don't recall the price of the SE in the UK. Whatever it was,
I clearly didn't think it was cheap enough to warrant buying one!

My feeling is that, nice as it was and still is, the TP is now a bit
anachronistic. If and when mine dies, it will be replaced with a
Raspberry Pi / HiFiBerry DIGI+ / External DAC with balanced outputs.



Transporter -> ATC SCM100A
