True, most BNCs are 50 ohm. Type N, which is a BNC on steroids, has a

Hi,
Just read about this danish music label (http://www.dacapo-records.dk/)
which sells it's musicdownloads as FLAC 16bit but also (some of them)as
Studio Master 24 bit 44.1 or 88.2 KHz.
It's mostly Classical.

Not really. While the BNC is clearly a superior connector the standard
is 50 ohm and it was originally designed for 50 ohm cables. So
What level of jitter-induced distortion can one expect?

That is what I was thinking.
I didn't know they were transformer isolated, that's good to know.

I do not _know_ that the Transporter word clock in outputs something.
seanadams says it does not (That also means it cannot I presume).
I might have been fooled into some audiophile "truth" that wordclock in
is better than no word clock in, also for a DAC. The Meitner and dCS
DACs have wordclock

It doesn't make sense to me to buy a NAIM DAC and a Touch. The music you
want to listen to is on a hard drive - no way should you have to convert

Hi,
I'm not completely clear on whether you have reached a common
conclusion, but I thought I'd offer some comments.
Valentino: How do you know that 'Wordclock IN' actually outputs
something, rather than e.g. simply doing nothing? Maybe you wrote it,
but I couldn't find an exact reason.

You see I was nice to you.
I bought a Linn DS and use Skweezy. A Touch + DAC does have some
advantages though - radio streams in particular.

Thanks guys.
Just the advice I was hoping for - and yes, a Naim DAC is also on the
shopping list.

Wait for the Touch.
Personally, Transporter is a non-starter. Components are already EOL.
Only two year warranty, no guarantee on post warranty fixes. Look
elsewhere:
Touch + Unity or new Naim DAC as you're a Naim man.
