Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] By-passing SB Touch DAC?

2017-06-08 Thread drmatt

I have to say it's a crap marketing tactic to go slagging off a much
loved obsolete music streamer to attempt to plug your portable music
*player*. It's not even got a common function to talk about, it's just,
different.

I even sent the OP a PM to let him know not to read any tone into my
post and that I didn't notice it was his first post yet because his
first post was in the Audiophile section, that wasn't a good place to
start. I offered different things for him to check and try.

Mainly to run an LMS Server not mini-server on the Touch and make sure
the the volume is at 100% on the Touch so there is not bit reduction.

Considering it was his only posting, I think you are right.
