Matt, I just spent the day listening to the Romulus at Audio Connection. He had Richard Vandersteen in for the day, so it was on his 7's with his own amp. The pre was the AR ref with phono...It was in the back room.. Best sound I've EVER heard. I was there very early and late and got the sweet spot seat. It was a ton of records as that's what Nick loves, but I threw a couple of my songs on the Rom from a CD I brought with me and it was amazing.. Still didn't do somethings a record will do, but it did a lot of stuff better. I was in shock as I've heard it a few times and this time it was really special. If the products you are listening to are better, then we are the winners. I think Digital is starting to really come of age. I'm still hoping that all in one solutions start to come out. Maybe units that you can control from a wifi app where you can hook up your own hard drive/NAS..that way you can better control your storage etc... I wish I knew more about digital, but I do know sound. If you are around the store, just stop by and check it out...It is worth the trip I promise. Wish I could hear some of the boutique products too as I'm sure they are awesome. I think this is why I'm always going to be a Brick and Mortar guy. Glad we have both options still.
