Quick correction. I never heard the IPod/Wilson combo. I believe it was in something written by Robert Harley. If memory serves me correctly, he said it was one of the best sounding set-ups at the show and it was a shocker when the IPod was revealed.
Critiques of Equipment
As I do some homework regarding CD & DVD players it continues to bug me that folks praise or slam, specific units without declaring whether they are using the DAC in the player (and analog pass through on the their pre/pro's) or using them as a transport (connecting through the coax).
I'm assuming the music will sound different, especially since most of the arguments here are over incremental changes in sound anyway.
Additionally, whether you believe in synergy or not, associated equipment groupings have an effect too.
My sense is there is very little "blind" side-by-side analysis that is done. Yet... there is no shortage of authoritative commentary!
