As a standalone device, the Touch is a great unit. Playing files natively to 96/24 is nice, and it sounds good "AS IS". Adding an external DAC would certainly be fun (and is supported via TOSlink, and Coax digital connections), but I don't see it as being absolutely necessary.
I don't think you can go wrong for the $300 price tag. -- Curt962 Transporter...Touch....Boom...... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Curt962's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=31949 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=86762 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
