forgot to mention, as the thread had moved on so much: I'm going to audition Bel Canto Ref 500s and/or S500 and Gallo 3.1s, which is very similar to OP's setup. Danyal, do you like it? I've also been advised to try the low power amp/high sensitivity speaker route. Going to try to look into this at the upcoming audio show in Silverstone.
Also, if the talk is to be believed, then your current setup, connecting via spdif, has lost all the low jitter benefits of the Transporter. It would definitely be great to hear you compare the PS + bridge vs Transporter. And in the meantime, though you're hearing the higher spec componentry of the unbridged PS, can you make out any jittery downside compared to your previous setup?
Thanks!
