But aren't your monoblocks balanced?
yes, but my preamp isn't - hence the need for rca to xlr as the ground
loop is occuring between the preamp and the amps (no ground loop if
preamp is taken out of mix and transporter goes directly into amps).

in this subject i believe, so i do think it's worth a shot and
much cheaper then buying a transformer. so does anyone know the pinout?
is there such a thing as a 'standard' pinout, i believe the US uses a
different pinout then the rest of the world, is this correct?

that everyone is not fully onboard the full
balanced boat, like mick from supratek who seems to think single ended
is the way to go for curing hum and preserving SQ (there i go jumping
into that controversy).

i have never had my transporter 'play nice' with ANY preamp i have used.
i always get a hum when i add in a pre. it disappears when i go straight
into my amps.

anyways it's a cheap fix if it works which is why i want to try it. as
for single ended vs. fully balanced i'm not even going to touch that
controversy.

so it's not technically biamping it's just powering the
woofer)the signal. seeing as how i wouldn't be using a preamp, could i
do the same thing from the rca outputs of my transporter - split the
output signal between two amps with a y cable?

really want some of their products, but i would be
hesitant to do so without some prior reassurances from their owner.
although these problems stem from this whole 'moving' issue, there
seems to be long standing problems with his customers per other audio
message bb's.

to argue that all of the above are true and that
others are idiots for buying them. who cares? it wasnt you that bought
it. why stomp on someone else for being happy.
ps - when (if) i can afford a transporter, i'm leaving it alone.

it is the same as the new model. i am very pleased
with it, and am selling it because i am getting a bolder analog mod for
my SB and won't need a DAC anymore. if interested, please contact me.

an audible difference. Enough to be happy with my purchase? Yes,
$200 well spent i think. Would i be happy if it was $1200 like the
DAC's this one is compared to in some reviews?
NO.
