Guy, I am not sure that “all audio components would ideally be transparent” as most of the audio components perform own actions: gain change or different type of conversions. Preamp, in contrary, mostly performs no actions or if it is in unity gain it has no actions. Also, is all depends what it is your definition of transparency. To view transparency as a delta between output and input is VERY simplistic thing as there is much more evolve perception of transparency. You complain that you yet to hear any audio components that completely transparent. Well, take a two resistor of good quietly (RH60 for instance) make 6dB voltage divider, preserving your input impedance and place the divider right at input of any of your component. Now you will have a function performing components that has absolutely no affect to transparency. If you wish to assess more complicated components then try Placette Active preamp. From where I stay I was able to find any influence to transparency in this unit. So, it is accomplishable. The problem that I see that people do not trying to pursuit it.
