+1 on all counts. When the Touch was first available I replaced a SB Receiver with a Touch. Both units were/are connected via the digital output to an external DAC and there was/is a vast improvement in the sound quality between the Receiver and the Touch. So Mnyb is quite correct in stating that upgrading to a Touch when used in a critical listening location is a very good idea. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ralphpnj's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10827 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=94871 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
