"IF YOU DON'T ALREADY OWN A USB DAC, AND ESPECIALLY IF YOU CAN'T AFFORD THE STATE OF THE ART, THEN STOP WHATEVER YOU'RE DOING AND BUY A MUSIC STREAMER+ RIGHT NOW."
I can’t be sure exactly what the magic dollar figure is that would purchase superior performance from a one-box CD player. But I’ll say that I wouldn’t be surprised if it fell somewhere between $3000 and $5000. Should you find a better player for $1,895, a MacMini with Streamer+ and FrontRow remote still would be cheaper and light years more convenient. Hence it takes even less than half a brain to pronounce the High Resolution Technologies Streamer+ a sure-fire winner.
