I have my transporter feeding directly into my Simaudio Moon i-5. The DAC compares favorably to my Simaudio Moon Nova, so I haven't felt any need to add a seperate DAC. Speakers are Totem Arros. Inputs are: Computer>HagUSB>Digital Coax In Server>Ethernet Panasonic DMR-EH75VS (DVD/VCR/HDD)>Digi

Thanks, Mark. Hmm...well it sounds good to me with my SB3's so they must have done a good job. After all of these horror stories about digital attenuation I guess I expected less-than-stellar results. Thanks again. -- joeriz ---

All volume adjustment in the SB3 or Transporter is digital. There is no potentiometer* which would allow you to adjust the volume digitally. * the Transporter has sets of resistors for fixed analog attenuation though. joeriz Wrote: > I have searched the forum on this issue and, quite frankly,

Surely the test of any "improvements" to any piece of equipment is if it plays music well to produce a more enjoyable sound. This assumes the modifications meet a basic measurable standard. If the above were not true then nobody would buy any valve gear. I believe that empirical work is very im
