Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Transporter wish list...
I will second the motion for a trigger and 12V works for me :-) As far as the wireless you can add more Access points on a different Channel (try to pick a channel 3 numbers off the first)connect the server and access points into a ethernet switch and you can run more wireless devices. -- Ozz 2 Channel listening Room: Transporter, Arcam C31 and Arcam P1 Mono Blocks feeding ATC SCM19s Cable and interconnects are both Kimber.

Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Ref: What Should I Buy ?
I love my Transporter and consider it one of the best components in my system. Having all of my music at the tip of my fingers (via Iphone ipeng)has been the single most useful thing I have ever done with the system. So simple even the spouse can do it... err I mean a cavewomen *snicker* (for those in Europe this is a spin off a well known commerical) -- Ozz 2 Channel listening Room: Transporter, Arcam C31 and Arcam P1 Mono Blocks feeding ATC SCM19s Cable and interconnects are both Kimber.

Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Transporter to pre- or poweramp

I will be testing some ATC SCM50A's in the near future but I am not sure it is worth the cost to upgrade. Currenty the configuration is outstanding in accuracy to the point that recordings I use to listen to sound a bit dirty compared to better recordings. (just plain bad engineering in the studio). My impression so far is that the TP is everything I had hoped for and more. 24/96 recordings through the TP are a great improvement over my single disc transport at 16/44. The next item to address is getting the 12v trigger to work for the amps. I am looking at just taking the fast way out and going with the Niles MSU250. This would let me use the IR off the TP to the Niles and then connect to the 12V trigger. Does anyone have a preference for controlling the TP? I use my iphone when at home but my spouse wants to be able to see all the music and make playlist etc without having to go to the server. I was thinking of using RDP from a small laptop (with SSD drive and no fan) in the listening room. I have not looked at softsqueeze so I am open to ideas for an easy user interface with full function and a readable size.
