I had heard of someone on a trial who replaced a very very expensive preamp with the Decco with little to no sound quality loss - I am not sure if it means it's a high end product, but I think it's a testament to what this product is capable of.
Actually I cannot think of a single product in existence right now that is configured quite like the Decco with its digital amp, DAC and tube preamp section along with all of the digital connections. I am sure if you hooked up a CD spinner to one of the digital inputs it would improve the sound quality of any CD player played through the Decco DAC.
Obviously it is built to pair very well with a Sonos system and because of the way it's set up the Sonos amp attaches to the Decco where you can then run the Sonos through the Decco DAC - this is certainly a step up for the Sonos.
I have heard the system with nice cables and interconnects via a Sonos set up and it sounded pretty damn sweet. If someone was looking for a system like a Decco, Sonos and speakers one would be pretty hard pressed to beat it for digital music.
Best part too is since it has pre out, you can run a power amp. I think this product is more than a bang for your buck product but a real step forward - I think it was very well thought out and executed and at this price is a steal.
