Found this thread while trying to decide if I should upgrade to SB2s. My house is littered with SB1s, all but one wired. While most are in areas where the sonics are irrelivant, two are connected to high quality DACs in rooms where we do seriously listen. I'm wondering if the dig output is meaningfully better on the SB2. Also curious how your moded unit fares. Have you done the shootout? How did it go? FYI: For years I've used the "looks the same to wife" method of trading up and upgrading my equipment too. A chance chat with an older audiophile who used similar methods will always stick with me. He had for years used Audio Research, Theta and Wilson, in part because the look barely changed from year to year. He told me that his wife had died a few years previous to our conversation. That now he could buy whatever component he wanted regardless of matching esthetics but that without her, the new equipment seldom brought him joy. -- Harry G _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
