I'm confused, Linn £2.5K CD player? Are you talking about a depreciated CD12? Nothing else I can think of? Having listened to a fair amount of Linn DS stuff, SBT is on a par with a lot of the entry stuff (with TT mods etc), but certainly not the high end. I don't see anything SBT getting into high end league Linn, unless Klaus goes for a Nobel peace prize. But as I have already said - what do you expect from a budget piece of kit even with all the mods - not a £20k streamer - do they exist? -- pandasharka ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pandasharka's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=45806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=91322
