Upgrade the Squeebox or get a Transporter?


Just as soon as I've got my new Squeebox up and running, Cerrot is sending me down the ugrade path again (thank you). I checked out the Channel Islands power supply upgrade $300, sounds reasonable, I figure a decent DAC will be around $1k. So, that's $300 for the Squeezebox, $300 for the power supply and $1k for a DAC...that puts me at $1600. Now I'm near the price of a Transporter ($1900).

The question now is, do I upgrade the Squeezebox or do I get the Transporter?

You have a tough question to answer. If I had never yet invested in any of this, I would probably give the Transporter a hard look. But I have the Red Wine Audio full modded sb2 and a TAD DAC so I am very happy. From what I have read, the modded squeezebox may outperform the stock Transporter but of course it doesn't have all of the bells and whistles.
