Cocktail Audio's New and latest X50pro Audiophile Music Streamer/server...Any Love?

I'm really interested in this unit as well. The hesitation I have is that it's so jammed packed with features for the price, I wonder how many shortcuts in the sound quality department. One question, can one play a CD or just rip?
