If you go back and re-read discussions pertaining to many attempts to improve SBT, you will see that, overall, Logitech engineers/designers etc. seem to be firmly standing the ground that such a thing is a pathetic pipe dream. In other words, according to the Logitech marketing, it is not theoretically possible to improve upon the sound quality of Logitech Squeezebox Touch. The grassroots community that is not beholden by the vendor's agenda appears to think differently. Guys like Soundcheck claim that there is room for improvement, and he had been working tirelessly on providing some positive modifications to the vanilla SBT. His efforts have been met with enormous, almost hysterical resistance by the vendor, which begs the question: why? Of course, the stock answer is that the vendor claims that guys like Soundcheck are pulling the wool over the unsuspecting audio community's eyes, and in behaving like that, he is doing a huge disservice to all naive, uninstructed audiophiles. Sounds like a very noble stance, even grandstanding, if you ask me. But is that really the whole story? Why would the vendor be so much against the possibility of improving its already quite popular product? -- magiccarpetride ------------------------------------------------------------------------ magiccarpetride's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=37863 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=91322 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
