Excellent review! I enjoyed reading it, and as an owner of a variety of Squeezeboxes, you got it spot on.
My only observation is that I think many in the audiophile world still get too caught up in the external DAC game. I had a SB3 with a Lavry and the external DAC did make enough of a difference for me to justify the expense. When I got the Touch last April, I spent about 2 weeks doing a synced, level-matched comparison between the SB3/Lavry and the Touch. I was rarely able to spot the difference and generally had to take a look at the amp input selector switch to tell which was playing. However, that's probably just me. I turned in my "audiophile" club card some time ago out of annoyance. I wonder if some of these people even bother listening to the music these days.... -- mlsstl ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mlsstl's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9598 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=82593 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
