Sadly, that's so true. I'm still in my 'honeymoon' period with my SB, but I was turned onto it by a friend who has worked in the 'audiophile' world for decades as a designer of electronics. He says that his own SB -> DAC set-up beats all the cd players he's ever heard, and he's heard plenty. Admittedly he's no doubt been tweaking away, but my stock SB certainly out-performs my 15 year old 'audiophile' cd transport, which now lives in a dusty cupboard.... -- gungrog ------------------------------------------------------------------------ gungrog's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17784 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=50035 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
