It took me a REALLY long time to find the bike. That's weird...

Just thought I would paste the communication I received here in case anyone else is interested in the information. RE: The new 'Truth' mods for the Transporter. Q - Do you put in your own clock, or use the stock one? The tubes look great, and I bet they sound nice as well. A - We keep the stock clock as it is already excellent and has a dedicated Jung Super Regulated supply already. Q - You said that the balanced output is from two transformers. Do they convert to balanced from an unbalanced output stage? A - Yes. Q - Any way to have a balanced output straight from the DAC? The 6CG7 is a great tube, I use it in my amplifier, the 6GU7 is another variant and is a slightly lower gain version. The RCA 6GU7 is the best tube I've found in this family and can be had for very low prices. A - Thanks for the tip RE 6GU7. The circuit type used is SE only. It is possible to run a dual-diff. circuit from the DAC, but the transformers also serve to reduce tube circuit gain by 4:1 and subsequently the noise floor. They also reduce the output impedance to a VERY friendly 110ohms, from the 600ohms otherwise from the tube circuit without OPT's. Thanks and I hope that this reply is still relevant at this late date. Interest is certainly increasing in this product and those that have it, REALLY are enjoying our modified unit. Take care, Dan W.

LOL, now that's funny. I nominate grawk.

It's not your fault, just saying that I hate that.

I nominate your daughter. [oooh, was that going too far? ]

I hate forums that make you register to view pics.

Awww, she looks like a cutie. One of my cats has a raspy meow as well, gives 'em character.

So, you have a bad experience with UPS and rather than blaming them, you blame a country? Learn from your mistakes and ship through USPS. Weird. I've yet to have a bad experience shipping into the US. You must have some bad luck there Al.

Ok, I'll cast a vote for thrice as well. He is not constantly funny, but when he is, it is quality humour.

Sweet, I can't wait to see pics.

Happy Birthday, quite the milestone.

Happy Birthday (again)!!! ...didn't realize you were younger than I.

Happy B-Day Jacob!

Happy Belated Birthday!

The bottom pic with the champagne faceplate looks alright, but I'm with Reks on the first one.

I don't think so, since it is just one mini XLR, I think you need to completely recable them dual entry.

I've never heard this before, you may want to get a second opinion. I've left my rig on for a good long time without issues, but I do generally turn it off when I'm not using it.

Tubyness... now I've seen everything.

I'll cast my for for Post.

Happy Belated Birthday!

Will wonders never cease. Congrats Earl, I'm glad you are happy with it. BTW. Is your zapfilter modded zhaolu the same model as the OMZ and does it have the same DAC chip?

One good thing about the Singlepower blackhole is that it is making me feel like less of a shmuck for putting up with Peters delays.

Sweet, I can't wait to read your comparison of the two.

Ori can speak english, he's just a dumbass...

Happy Birthday!
