Can't comment on the 1709, cause they don't have the D/A output specs, but my 3808ci which costs 3x more has worse specs than the SB3 on the D/A outputs:
THD(+N?)3808ci: 0.008% or -81.9dB THD+N SB3: 0.002% or -93.5dB Mike -- mvalera Michael Valera Online Communities Manager Logitech Streaming Media Business Unit slimdevices.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mvalera's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11086 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=52848 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
