I did/am. For several reasons, not debating the perceived incremental changes--or lack thereof---in sq, I'm kinda' liking the iPad/iPeng combo. We've essentially put the iPad on a stand in the same "home" position as the Touch--on the shelf with the amp and dac. It now looks like a giant Touch. The "now playing" screen readability from across the room is vastly improved plus, as others pointed out, there's just a lot more real estate for reading playlists, search results, etc. Not to mention the portability and all the other cool things about the iPad. Mrs. rgro is in Apple heaven and I've gotta' admit, after listening to the final movement of a 24/96 Mahler's 2nd (which is, for lack of a better word, a rather dense piece!) after we got everything all set up last night, there is a clarity and breadth to the music that is totally involving. Even my stuff on Rhapsody sounds damn good, now. -- rgro Rick System information ------------------------ Main: PS Audio Quintet > Touch (wired) via spdif coax > CA DacMagic > Marantz PM8003 > VA Mozart Grands > REL Acoustics R305.
