A matter of opinion. A person who has been brewing for more than 15 years said that you won't gain anything by transferring your beer to secondary. He thought that by doing so you simply risk oxidation of your beer.

But I won't say anything for sure yet. I'll probably test this thing sometime by making two batches of the same beer. I'll leave the other one into primary fermenter for two weeks and transfer the other one to secondary after a few days of fermentation.
