Some friends and I tested out a few devices (Receiver, SB3, Tranpsorter, SB+, Naim CDX) on a top end Naim hifi with B&W Nautiless speakers recently. We didn't devote too much time to the Receiver and the SB3, but the differences were not remarked upon as being great. For me personally I was interested to hear that what I perceive as the slightly deadening "flatness" of the SB3 sound was not apparent in the Receiver.
Caveat: In my experience comparisons like this only have any benefit or relevance for the individuals conducting the tests. Everyone else (witness this forum) appears to hear everything very differently. This is why audiophile reviews or audiophile opinions are generally not worth a jot. I probably shouldn't have bothered replying to your post really, but despite myself couldn't resist. MC -- ModelCitizen Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known.
