There are some indications that the new Squeezebox Duet is sounding better or equal with the Linn Ikemi, when you are using the analog output and compare side by side. This can be read on the Swedish site, Faktiskt.se, where me and a friend has done some comparisons in an all Linn rig. The sound was definitely better from the Squeezebox receivers analog output, than by Linns preamp 5103:s own internal dacs. When we compared the sound Ikemi/versus Squeezebox duet receiver the sound was of, I should say, an equal quality.
Is it the Wolfson DAC that does the trick for squeezebox receiver ? It would surely be very interesting to hear some comments about that, from the designer of the Squeezebox Duet! What makes it sound that good? My friend has sold his Ikemi now, because he feels the sound is not any worse from the duet receiver. -- Paradigm ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Paradigm's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16808 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=38815 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
