Which to me makes the SB part of the audio world, but it's just a matter of which side of the fence you're observing things from. Because then, by the same logic, half my CD player is part of the computer based world... Let's just agree that things like the SB represent a wonderful blur of the two worlds, which seemed irreconciliable before the SB arrived, it seemed. The idea has huge potential, it's a huge step in truly revolutionizing high end audio as we've known it for ages. In fact, the current landscape is a bit disporienting as a moderate audiophile. When I look at my chain and consider new loudspeakers, I am starting to think what the requirements will be 5 years down the line to make it worth the investment... and the truth is I don't know, so I am likely to stay put for now (unless I win the lottery). -- pablolie ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pablolie's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3816 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=32993 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
