Well, I still have Casette Tapes for my Casette Deck that had "For digital use" across the wrapping. At the time, well-estimated manufacturers that wanted to assure the "average consumer" that also CD-source material could be recorded... Likewise, "digital speakers" and "digital amplifiers" has been advertized, long before the ICE technology was remotely developed. It all boils down to marketing.
It seems a way to persue, however, in view of low power consumption and a better control of the digital signal. Credit to Sonos for also looking at the end result: The sound. I know that also Logitech use this approach - it will be necessary until we have developed digital human eardrums.... :) My own little "wishlist" is : External HDD -> Squeeezebox Touch -> AVI ADM9.1 speakers(w. sub). This will handle up to 24/192 input, and will play the pantyhoses down many a combination. For years to come. At 6-7 times the cost of a Boom or an S5, though...
