First, thanks to everyone for the interesting dialog. Much appreciated. Second, Merry Christmas! Third, I got the SBT going this morning along with the DBpoweramp ripper sw and installed a 1.5TB HD. This thing is WAY COOL! I think I have only scratched the surface of what it can do. I really like the internet radio feature! A lot more there then I expected.
As far as sound quality, after ripping 27 CD's I sat down to listen. Intially I was not impressed, it was rough, edgy and sibilant, no dimension to the sound at all. I let it play while out doing some chores, it appeared to be a lot smoother when I returned a coule hours later. Sounded better, I did notice that sound quality varied cd to cd. The radio sounded VERY good. Right now I have a cd playing thru the touch that I originally recorded from vinly and it too sounds VERY good. I definitly need to be patient, let it play a little more as I get used to it and see how I like it in a month or two. It certainly sounds acceptable right now, but I can't help thinking it will sound a lot better with a better dac. Also, I'm using AQ King Cobra IC's with it. -- Atver John Ayre Electonics, VPI Scout, AQ cables, Harbeth C7ES, REL R505 with a Touch. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Atver's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41985 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=83976 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
