Stereophile has awarded the SB a class D performance in the Digital Processors category, along with Apple Airport Express and Echo PC sound card. There is no lower classification than D, but class D is higher than no award at all!
In the rating's summary paragraph JA faulted the analog section's performance for the class D rating. His review mentioned the stock power supply as a potential liability in analog performance. While never intended to be a high end source component, SB has made its way into the audio mainstream and cracks the door open for the Transporter to hit this year, with plenty of time for reviews and consideration for next year's Recommended Components. Congratulations to Slim Devices for receiving their first Stereophile Recommended Components Award! -- richidoo ------------------------------------------------------------------------ richidoo's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3097 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=27452 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
