The SB2 analogue outs are a definite improvement over the SB1's and and after upgrading I thought I could probably dump my Perpetual Technologies P3-A Dac, PA-1 upsampler and Monolithic psu. However, I'm glad I waited a while because it has become obvious (with familiarity) that the PT gives me a cleaner, sharper and (much?) more detailed sound than the SB2 Dac. On balance though I prefer the sound of my Naim CDX over both as it somehow just seems to make things sounds more likeable. (attractive?). It's hard to put my finger on what the Naim does... it's just more listenable and warm somehow (but perhaps not as detailed/intense as the PT?).
I use a Iomega Psu with my Squeezebox, but should probably try the linear one mentioned elsewhere on this forum as it's so cheap.
