I think "Fifer" has has TP connected directly to his NAP250, at least it appears so from his sig. You could contact him for info.

[SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Re: Headphone amp for Transporter XLR connector ?
I think the problem would be that you cannot attenuate the XLR output, so you get no volume control even if you could connect the phones direct to the transporter. -- magnanimous magnanimous's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=8977 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=30774 ___ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
[SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Re: new Avi 'Active' speakers.. perfect?
You may be correct about the cost, was pure speculation on my part. I've spoken to Ashley from AVI on the phone before and he's very passionate about his products. I seem to remember he was running for a train when I phoned but that didn't stop the call lasting over 30 mins. I take it he didn't give any indication of cost? Will be interesting to see them when they come out as I've toyed with the active Neutrons to go along with my SB3 in my office.

[SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Re: new Avi 'Active' speakers.. perfect?
AVI's existing small bookshelf speaker, the active Neutron IV, retails for about £1050 in the UK. I've not heard the active versions but the speakers themselves are stunningly transparent and seem to punch well above their diminutive size. They need to be sited on stands to get the best out of them. The new media speakers would appear to be similar but with the amp built in and not an addition on the back and the addition of a DAC for usb. I suspect the will retail for about £600 in the UK given this quote from the AVI site. "We did look to see what sort of separates you could get for the money and found a 40wpc Integrated Amp (insufficient headroom for modern recordings) for £600 and a well known 50wpc pre/power combination for £1500 or the price of our speakers and a decent computer" -- magnanimous magnanimous's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=8977 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=31557 ___ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
[SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Re: Transporter: Brickbats and bouquets
Wow another WNA Mk2 owner. Still got to get mine connected to my Transporter but am expecting great things. My own experience with obtaining a Transporter couldn't have been more different from yours. I was browsing the UK suppliers and unable to find one that had them in stock. This was last week. So I placed an order direct with Slim who were quoting a 3 week delivery time. Two days later UPS turn up with 2 packages!! Am extremely happy with the TP but agree with Fifer that it is a subtle upgrade from the SB3 with my setup. Naim amps and Proac speakers. There does seem to be a wider soundstage and the music a bit more dynamic. More listening required I think. Oh and thanks to Slim for the extra nut and washer in the TP that rattled about when I unpacked it. Investigation didn't find anything missing or unconnected inside just some free parts. -- magnanimous magnanimous's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=8977 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=30747 ___ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
