I read today the review in Stereophile, and to my surprise, there is also one by Steven Stone in "Analogue Issue" of TAS. Both reviewers rave about the product, including JA's measurements
But - all of them look at this piece from $300 value point. Either I missed something, but they did not compare directly against 10x-20x more expensive components. Guys went nuts to see full-features digital source for 300$ while a piece of cable will cost much more. - I could not understand how Touch sounds, absolutely and relatively to other pieces Review is more or less about technology, idea, Squeezebox server approach - and with that I absolutely agree, but there is little new that Touch brings here.. BTW, in some other magazine I saw a review of Vortexbox machine. Funny, Stereophile review mentions few upgrades like that discussed Touch Tweak blog, iPeng, John Swenson's tweak to use USB as digital out, power supply upgrade (although without mentioning Teddy Padro).. -- michael123 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ michael123's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=23745 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=82050 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
