Thanks to Sean and tomjtx for speaking up. Six months ago, there was a deafening chorus of "experts" on this forum telling everyone that a linear power supply and mods were necessary to make the Squeezebox worthwhile. There were prospective customers buying a replacement power supply supply before their Squeezebox had even arrived. It's one thing to trust your own ears. It is just stupid to buy upgrades before you have heard the Squeezebox.
This sort of a climate of rumor and fad can make it difficult for a company to base products on sound engineering that delivers good value. I'm glad that there are some people delivering reality checks now. Sean, stick with your approach of real engineering rather than following fads. There is too little of that in the high-end audio industry.
