I'm using an 840c with a Squeezebox Duet. Excellent. Beat a Meridian player which preceeded it and I prefer it to the Perpetual Technology DAC/Upsampler. Another one to consider is the Quad CDP2. -- HectorHughMunro ------------------------------------------------------------------------ HectorHughMunro's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16514 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=42020 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
