Re: [slim] Transporter or Touch?
Hi, maybe i'm the only one, but I wouldn't go for the Transporter! This is why mine died after about 3 years, and of course no service through Logitech! So on the Low End side I'm still going with Touch, Classic, Receiver... On the High End Side I switched to Linn. regards carrera SBClassic, Touch, Receiver eingelagert - Duet, Radio, Boom in Verwendung ansonsten iPeng, SqueezePad Server: Win7, Files: FLAC carrera's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=14292 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=100636 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Transporter or Touch?
really, you are much better off spending your money on a good external DAC, and feeding it from any SB - Touch or SB3. i used to want to buy a Transporter but all the spots where taken, and as i recently built my new system (see Pics of your system) i got a Benchmark DAC2HGC (which is superb), and used to feed it with the Touch but as of a few days ago connected an old SB3 with the original slim devices logo i had in a box. yes, i know the Touch supports 24/192 and the SB3 only does 48/24, but honestly i can't hear a difference. ...pablo Server: Virtual Machine running Ubuntu 12.04 + LMS 7.7.3 on VMware Player System: SB Touch --optical-- Benchmark DAC2HGC --AnalysisPlus Oval Copper XLR-- Creek Destiny Power Amp --AnalysisPlus Black Mesh Oval-- KEF LS50 Other Rooms: 2x SB Boom; 1x SB Radio; 1x SB Classic- AudioEngine5 pablolie's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3816 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=100636 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Transporter or Touch?
I'd almost certainly go with a good async USB DAC as jitter is essentially removed from the equation. So a Touch with the EDO extension installed would be my preferred choice. Although I do quite like those tube displays...
