The transporter is totally overengineered. The front panel is useless for most , the double display is not of any great use. The price break tween a TP and a SB is rediculous. The TP coulda had the better dac and all the features of the TP for far far less. To pay huge amounts extra for aesthetics , knobs , thick front panel and silly handles is rediculous. I'm an audiophile , and like most of em , the prime concern is the sound of a unit, and thr TP is lacking imho in terms of its sonic sig with its DAC. It sounds cold , clinical and lifeless. In the interim , im on my 3rd TP , the first ones knob was broken and the 2nd ones display died on me.......so much for adding extra parts.
