I picked up a Logictech/Slim Device Famed Transporter. Everything I have read about this device is 100% correct. Set up to my already squeeze network was a breeze. I used a straight rip of Earl Klugh solo guitar CD as a test. I checked the bit rate of the music through the Transporter and it automatically converted the WAV file to FLACC at 700kbs at play back. Earl sounded as he was in the room with me. But the real joy came when I tuned in LastFm ( subscription services), the sound was much more rich and warm, the bass was tighter. I run my system as a 7ch stereo and the separation of the music was more defined. I had been reading over in the slim device forums that some say that the Touch with a good DAC can match the Transporter. I'm just tickled at this point.
