Logitech Squeezebox Touch's are allegedly raining out of UPS trucks into the arms of new owners, as we speak.... or as you read this ;-)
NOW, advance word is that the analog out is a huge step up from it's predessor. It's alleged to have quite a good DAC.
How good?
Those of you with some experience on this matter - please speak up! It is stomping your Berkeley DAC? Empirical? Weiss? Peachtree? Cambridge? Devilsound?
A question, and a followup to my previous post. I have a Touch that I stream to from a MAC. Is the Touch receiving 24/96 for my hi res files? I know that there is a 16 bit limitation for the streaming with Apple Airport with iTunes, but is the Touch limited by this? Or is Squeezebox Server doing its own thing? I have not been able to find a definitive answer to this question.
Ive been rocking the SBT for about one week now. The interface is easy to use, the server software is simple, and the sound is great. I'm seriously neglecting my CD player and turntable. Best purchase of 2010.
The Touch is great out of the box and can rival the best servers with some additional gear (power supply, cables, a great dac). I love mine. It ain't vinyl, but very, very excellent.
