>From a practical standpoint, it makes tons of sense to buy a Touch first. If you need that extra bit (especially the balanced output, which I use on my TP) you can always buy a TP later. Very few people can get along with only one SqueezeBoxen I have not done A/B comparison between my Touch and my TP, but the Touch is very nice. I have a TP, Touch, Boom, Radio, Duet, and have bought and used three plain SqueezeBoxen. So I'm a bit biased. -- Pat Farrell http://www.pfarrell.com/ _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
