Sorry folks, i didn't mean to sound all uppity. My point was really
about the fact that i wasn't seeing anything about digital amps. In
trying to learn about my sb it seems to be all about connecting to a
DAC. I am also learning about other things including my receiver/amp.
As far as specs-i can t
Digital amps are really cool.. however Class D doesn't always mean no
DAC. If memory serves, the Panasonic units use the TI PurePath chips
to do the PWM amplifications. I don't remember if these do the DAC
functions internally or not.

I was thinking about downloading a couple Linn 24/96 studio master songs
just to see what they sound like. Anyone like particular examples that
demonstrate quality? I was thinking of a Claire Martin and maybe one
of the classical ones.

My TP hasn't had this issue at all.. looks like a defective glue job, or
a mis-cut in the plastic. I would call slimdevices, I'm sure they'll
take care of the problem.

Hello Auronthas,
The most bang for the buck music wise is your output source i.e. your
speakers. Is buying the DAC a move up in performance, it is. With your
current system equipment will it be a realized gain, in other words,
will I hear an improvement? IMO, one would be hard pressed to hear an

Lets see, your amp has distortion, just like an analog amp, it has
limited bandwidth, just like an analog amp, it produces noise, just
like an analog amp
Class D amps do have some benefits, mostly in terms of powe
Neither of my two Transporters has had this problem...
I'd suggest you email Slim support, they're normally very helpful.

The SB3's case is prettier, but useless for DIY projects.
The SB2, while uglier in stock form, it's the perfect platform for
modding. The results can be mighty impressive!

No no - you don't get me :)
Firstly it's at my friends place - I took it over there today to try it
out and compare it to his SB3
When I unboxed - I left it powered up for an hour or so - and the front
perspex is buldging out - and I pushed it back in to place and it popped
out.
Excuse the dust
tporter_user,
it's awfy dusty!,i have the sane complaint here.
no doubt your Transporter does look a wee bit out of sorts..
i'm presuming here that mabye you started with a SB of some
flavour,here i have a black SB3 and seriously contemplating upgrading
to the TP.any pointers?.

Hi Guys,
I've a Black Transporter - wondering if you had seen these problems?

Any ideas how to get it fixed, or fix it myself? Is this a known issue?

No need to do anything special for 48 kHz, what's really essential is
FLAC. Transcoding from Microsoft formats isn't as easy as it may seem.

Exactly, the display mounted to main board on the SB3 is very limiting
for DIY.

So.someone here has seen fit to point out my TDR work on AC.
Has anyone noticed that an important person here also does not like SC

Above all a decent pre amp is the most important. Tact 2.0S ACTIVE will
transform your hearing experience. It has dropped in price and has
changed my listening. Of course, good speakers are necessary but it is
the preamp stage that decides what is blown into your speakers. It is
not magic.

I hope you find one. Be patient, eventually it'll show up.
I was lucky to find a couple for my Super Squeezebox project earlier
this year. I'm keeping an extra one in "mothballs" for spare parts,
just in case :-)
There's nothing like the old SB2 for a DIY project, that's for sure!
