I've been a proud owner of two ESL 57 and a 303. Recently, for the living room I've invested in a Denon AVR and two B&W CM8 a CM Center and two CM1's. How is it that the two speakers older than I am don't stop to amaze me. Currently listening to Peter Gabriel's Half Blood (Flac 24/48 download from B&W Society of Sound). So rich in depth and transparency. So easy on the ears. A great recording. And btw the Quad's are connected to a classic Squeezebox, whereas the AV system is sporting the Touch.
It really seems that the extra bits only matter when the analog part works its wonders. oh, the Squeezebox Classis reached eol. Pity. I could read its display from great distance. -- th00ht Ripping: 'EAC (free and great)' (http://www.exactaudiocopy.de/), Tagging: 'Tag&Rename (not free but the best)' (http://www.softpointer.com/) Squeezebox Server 7.6.1 / Arch64 Squeezebox Classic, Quad 303 (where can I get new caps?) + two Quad ESL 63 Squeezebox Touch, Denon AVR 1912 (Pure Direct) + two B&W CM8 'last.fm' (http://www.last.fm/user/th00ht) 'SoS' (http://www.bowers-wilkins.com/Society_of_Sound/Society_of_Sound/Music/download-manager.html) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ th00ht's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=15656 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=91220 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
