"Squeezebox Transporter Mods"
As requested, here are a list of the reference upgrades for the Squeezebox Transporter.
The upgrade modifications are primarily for using the Transporter with an external DAC, although the nature of the upgrades will also improve the sound via the analogue line-outs. This does dispense with the most costly part of the Transporter, the analogue section, but even with the AKM DAC chips, discrete Jung regulators, it does not compete with the stand-alone DAC’s on the market at around £800 upwards.
These are the installed reference upgrades;
■ Cryogenically treated IEC inlet socket.
■ Bybee reference purifiers for AC input.*
■ Low noise, wide band shunt regulator for 5V supply.
■ Low noise, wide band shunt regulator for 3.3V supply.
■ OSCON SVP regulation bypass capacitors.
■ Panasonic FK digital PSU & decoupling capacitors.
■ Superclock 4 ultra-low jitter master clock.
■ Superclock 4 clock PSU.
■ WBT NextGen cu RCA phono for digital out.
■ 1x Bybee Slipstream purifier for digital out.
■ 6N OCC wire for digital out.
*New technology from Bybee which cannot be disclosed here. Please e-mail.
The cost of the upgrade is £1497.00, which added to the SB Transporter @ £1150.00 is a total spend of £2647.00.
