I have a very occasional loss of connectivity via USB, but very rare. Yeah with lots of USB dacs out there now it's perhaps a box and connection more than necessary these days but it sounds good to me.
No preamp for me, I run a modded Trends 10.1 as a power amp only, using Endler attenuators to control volume. Just picked up a NuForce Icon also and will see which amp I prefer when I get back home to Asia.
