The cost of the TP is not a real problem. I just want to make a decision that I won't regret later. I'm not a true audiophile (my ears just aren't that good) and I tend to keep my stuff for a long time. I'm still using my Denon CD player from over 10 years ago. It cost over $1000 at that time. So $1700 with today's dollar is a bargain if the TP indeed is as good as many (practically all) of you say. It is true that perhaps the remote volume control alone is worth the extra $400 (surprising that no other DAC in this price range has this simple feature).
I was, and still am, a little skeptical about the audiophile quality of a Slim Devices product. The SB is a proven and revolutionary device but that only proves that SD is a great high tech company. It seems unlikely, although definitely not impossible, that SD can create a DAC that is superior to companies that have been doing this kind of stuff for decades. But from the testimonials posted so far, apparently SD has indeed succeeded in doing so. So I guess I'll bite the bullet and contribute my $2000 to celebrate SD's success! -- Coffee ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Coffee's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=8198 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=29124 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
