Transporter vs. Squeezebox Touch w/PS AudioDL-III


hi,

which of these two options is the better way to go?

i currently have a sb3 running into an outlaw 2150.

has anyone compared the touch to the transporter?

thanks in advance.

thanks for the info.

is it 100% the transport displays are no longer being manufactured?
thanks for the replies.

this is very tough to decide. all the reviews i read about the transporter sound great. but, i keep hearing how pairing the squeezebox with a decent dac compares or beats the transporter. so confused!
also, i have never had a dac. are they just left on 24/7? any kind of maintence required (i am a newbie).

my current system consists of a sb3 hooked to a rr2150 to av123 x-sls speakers.

thanks in advance.
i took the plunge on the touch and ps audio dac III. i am very excited! one question; do i run an optical cable to the dac from the touch then from the touch to the receiver...rca cables? i see on the ps audio dac there is two digital cable inputs. which one would i use? like i said before, i am using a rr2150 receiver.

thanks in advance.
thanks for the reponse.

there looks to be two digital ouptuts; a square looking one and an orange rca looking one. when i say i am a newbie i wasnt kidding! blue jeans has the folloing options available: http://www.bluejeanscable.com/store/digital-audio/index.htm

i assume the Belden 1694A Coaxial Digital Audio Cable with rca to rca cables is what i want?

thanks again.
