Thanks for the suggestion, Dne. I've been scratching my head on this one. I am seriously considering putting all my music (either uncompressed or with lossless compression) on to my PC and using something like a Squeezebox in place of my transport. I have the knowledge, equipment, disk space, and networking all in hand to be able to do something like this. I am just looking for some more comparisons between this new server alternative and traditional high end transports. Maybe it's the way to go.
Transport replacement costs - Proceed
I finally got to a point where I called Harman for a RMA number. My Proceed PDT3 (I think) may need to have its transport replaced. Last year I was unwilling to send it in because (at the time) Harman was charging a flat $1000 "entry fee" for servicing this older line of equipment. They now have a "not to exceed" fee (which covers both parts and labor). In the case of the PDT3 the NTE fee is $995. I am a little unwilling to be socked with an almost $1000 fee for such an old (but still awesome) transport. When I asked the guy what he thought a transport replacement would cost, he was unsure. Does anyone have any recent experience in helping me understand whether this kind of work would be bumping up on to the higher end of that NTE fee?
