ModWright Transporter

oops, just found the "next" button on the six moons review - several more pages of good info. Read it here:

Still, I'd love to hear from anyone here who has been able to audition one. If it does indeed deliver, it looks like I'll be giving up my Sonos network and PS Audio DAC III. Heck, I might even give up my integrated in favor of mono blocs if the volume control doesn't denigrate performance.

Stay tuned.. just dropped mine off there and will pick up modded unit probably Wednesday. I've had mine a month or so and I'll have a good perspective on the stock vs modded since I'll only be a couple days without it.

I want to follow if it acting as pre to amps is way to go.

I have had my unit for a couple of weeks. It is much better than my previous Cary 306 SACD (!), and very very close to my Burmester 001. If I run digital out from the Modwright and uses the Burmester 001 as DAC I am not able to tell the difference.

I live in Norway and D.Wright has been excellent to deal with. This player has my highest recommendations!

Cappuccino, by using an external DAC, are you saying you don't like the ModWright DAC that is part of the Transporter or was that just for A/B comparison?

Also curious if you are using a pre-amp or going straight to your amp and using the volume control on the Transporter.

Thanks for chiming in!
