Ok, I read lots of reviews which say that the AVR280 out-performs the old AVR300 by a long way. So I went ahead and now have a shiny new AVR280. Along with a new Cambridge DacMagic DAC for my SB3, the stereo sound from this amp is much more musical than my old Denon AVR (which is for sale if anyone would like it!). I've got the new one bi-amped to my KEFs using QED bi-wire cables, which made a good difference too (tried it standard bi-wire first, and then bi-amped, and the bi-amped definitely has better bass response).
I'm still intrigued about the Audiocom "Digital Upgrade" for SB's advertised on eBay. How can you upgrade te Digital side? Surely all the SB is doing is passing-through FLACs/WAVs to the external DAC, which would always be bit-for-bit perfect? Anyone tried this and knows if it made a worthwhile difference? -- swarduk ------------------------------------------------------------------------ swarduk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=20371 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=57314 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
