I think that's pretty optimistic, unless living in the US means you have to suffer some really bad 'audiophile' equipment, or you're comparing it to something designed well over 5 years old. That whole part of the article seemed more like hearsay to me. Yes, squeezebox is good, yes it makes a good transport, but a modern $300 cd player uses a fixed crystal clock too. A pc may do a better job with a marginal/damaged cd, but otherwise the difference shouldn't be significant. -- bludragon ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bludragon's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1530 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=18991 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
