Isn't it even more bizarre for people who are serious about audio to dismiss something on aesthetic considerations? Don't serious audio enthuisiasts make decisions based on sound quality rather than appearance? Why would a manufacturer restrict the versatility of something which fits in the SB3 form factor by housing it in a casing more than ten times the volume it needs to be? The SB3 happily fits in nooks and spaces where a 19" box would be compeletely impractical. That (to me) is versatility, not 'lifestyle'. I'm obviously just not getting this issue. -- Fifer ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Fifer's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=639 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=40309 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
