Hello, I have been very happy with my Yamaha Natural Sound CDC-655 but I thought it was time to use my 2 year old Squeezebox v3 for real and file my CDs away. The player has been rock solid and has sonically been fine in my opinion. I am by no means an audiophile. I am not bashing Yamaha either.
I don't know if this stuff is just in my head but.... The Squeezebox seams to have a fuller fatter (not louder... That is different) sound than my CD player. I can hear more detail too. He is the deal.. I use EAC to rip my CDs on my Wife's Window's machine. The drive I am using to rip is a tsstcorp cd dvdw sh-s182d. I didn't use any normalizing or anything. Maybe the Squeezebox has a newer better DAC? Actually I am using my AVR's DAC (Coax Cable) for the squeezebox so that is out of the question. Does the Squeezebox leave the stream alone or is there some EQ done on it? I hope that it is left alone.
