Personally I am in exactly this position. I can't justify $2k for a transporter (would I really hear the difference in my open plan living room??) but have a pretty decent system -SB3 --> B&K 200.2 -->B&W 804. I was waiting for the Duet to replace the SB3 and move the SB3 to the bedroom. The change in DAC has now put the purchase on hold until I see some reviews. Sean mentioned measurements - any chance of posting the comparison? sm -- smcint ------------------------------------------------------------------------ smcint's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13188 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=41805 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
