I'll echo what the others have said. The dealer has obviously seen the easiest opportunity to extract more money. In actual fact, the Squeezebox is superior because it is an open and upgradable system. The last thing anyone wants is to be stuck with some overpriced audio-jewellery and find the company has discontinued the product, or gone broke.
The only thing I'll enhance on - it -may- be superior to use USB connection, because that allows for asynchronous transfer. In reality, the difference should be negligable because any halfway decent DAC has buffering/reclocking and error correction - but regardless, you -could??- argue that USB is superior. The Touch can do that with EDO, or you can use PiCorePlayer, which would really be the ultimate insult to the snobby dealer :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ amey01's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11274 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113335 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
