Wonderfull, 2-ch PCM, only have 2 speakers anyway :)

Sean,
Congratulations on the exciting new product (I guess products). I
was particularly interested in the answers to the questions raised by
Kim yesterday but I guess it got buried with the huge traffic. I
would like to repeat the questions here and wait for your answers.
Thank you ve

How strange those are the same (nearly 4393instead of 4396) dacs as used
by those, said el chipo by many "experts", Behringers units, pro sound
card etc. How can they be put in a high end (high price) product? A
hint, maybe because they are very good?
But seriously those DACs have a voltage outpu
I just looked more closely at the specs for AK4396, and it appears that
it is not a current output DAC. Why was the decision made to go for
this DAC, as opposed to a current output DAC such as PCM1794? I would
think at this price point, you should get the absolute best money can
buy, since DAC chi
1st off, congrats on the new product the tranporter at least looks and
specs great, can't wait to hear one.
Q1, I notice it has a Digital input? Could you elaborate a little on
the function? I will assume at the very least it can be used for
external transports or digital outs from other sources
Hiya,
Just wanted to check - I'm sure I read somewhere that the SB2 & 3
produced even better sound if the volume was fixed and a good pre amp
was used.
I guess from all the added bits and bobs in the transporter this volume
fixed vs variable thing is no longer an issue to fussy ears?

No, one model for both. It measures the line voltage using an ADC, and
uses a relay to configure the primary windings accordingly.

Go for it! We've added hardware attenuation jumpers for the RCA outs,
so
Trying to figure out if I can sell my fancy pants pre amp to fund a
Transporter (don't take any grief over the name, it has many cool
meanings to me). Are both the analog outputs hot? I have one amp for my

Sean,
The Transporter spec sheet implies it will support up to 96kHzx24 bit
sample rate:
"Sample rates: 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 96kHz
Audio format: linear PCM, 16 or 24 bits per sample"
Q1: Will 96kHz x 24bit streaming from the server be supported?
Q2: If so, when? 6.5 or some later release?
Q2: If so

Yes. The reason we don't call it "free" is because we charge you for
the SB3 when it ships (immediately). Then it's subtracted from the
Transporter price, charged separately wh
Do you mean the SRP for the transporter is 1999? SO if we order now, we

Yes, 6.5 will be required. Transporter support in the server, plus a
new transporter-capable softsqueeze will be checked in soon, so the
server will get plenty of "bak
