the more expensive + model can be got for 2,895
I dont have a Touch, I use a WOO Audio GES as the amplifier and a naim
DAC fed by a mac mini. Its true, the Stax are very revealing, but the
4040's are also forgiving, so I doubt you will have issues with the
touch, as I assume you will be buying an outboard dac later on... the
006t is an OK amp,
what does that conversion mean? - thanks much!

The SRS-4040 is priced at Euros 1260 (new) or 890 for a used set... I
don´t know if I should worry about buying a used set, from what I
understand STAX deliver good quality equipment. When it comes to vacuum
tubes I understand they have to be replaced after some time. The used
set I´m looking at
some day I will get around to investing in some STAX gear! - have to
stay focused!

It doesn't really mean anything. Comparing bit rate with sample
rate...
SBS is only estimating the bitrate anyway and not very well in some
cases.

MAD is a decoder for mp3 claiming superior decoding due to using high
accurately 24bit and is build into the device. Using lame as decoder is
said to be of less quality.
Not that it really matters. I bet people will hear lame on server
streamed as wav is better then
From a technical standpoint it makes sense. Since mp3 doesn´t store its
data in a given bit depth, decoding to higher bit depths can´t hurt.
Slimdevices even used it for marketing:
MPEG decoding uses MAD software, widely regarded as the most accurate,
most compatible MP3 decoder, High accuracy
I´ve noticed that the 006t RCA terminal Input 1 is equipped with
parallel output terminals, does this mean I can connect it directly to
my existing amplifier which powers my ProAcs. If not, is there any
other way I can use the Touch RCA out to feed both my headphones and
speakers at the same
All silly nonsense aside (Yes, I'm looking at YOU Audioquest) could
there be a case for a shielded Ethernet cable causing an HF Bridge into
