The Linn Klimax DS set up I have with 4500+ CDs burnt to storage is irrelevant, controlled with iPad and Kinsky. Also please forward a sensible argument as to why if you sold your SB gear and streamed into an external DAC via airport express or similar, you would lose anything either via spotify for radio (as you put it) or CD rip? Looking forward to hearing if there is any logic or just bluster. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pandasharka's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=45806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=72018 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
