"I judge a product by the initial results...." You should also consider the initial cost. When you look at what this product does for you it is a rare bargain. Wifey loved it right out of the box. She used to ask me to put on music but now she helps herself. Even suggested getting another SB.
The stock PS is just fine for equipment in this price range. High quality power supplies are quite expensive. The expense is only justified if you want to push performance and have equipment that allows you to realize the gain. I bought a cheapo surplus linear supply and noticed improvement in exactly the areas you mentioned "Undefined low end, way to laid back middle and unfocused top." Basically, lacked any refinement in an audiophile sense. It's not like oh, now I'm completely satisfied, but it shows enough potential with the surplus PS that I've ordered a Red Wine modded SB3 and if that works out will be looking for a well designed PS to replace the surplus linear. You may never be satisfied with the sound for critical listening, I don't know, but just the convenience makes this product a worthwhile purchase for anyone that has a stereo and a network. IMO, YMMV, etc. -- Music Machine ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Music Machine's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1486 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=18491 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
