Logitech Squeezebox Touch DAC: How Good?


Logitech Squeezebox Touch's are allegedly raining out of UPS trucks into the arms of new owners, as we speak.... or as you read this ;-)

NOW, advance word is that the analog out is a huge step up from it's predessor. It's alleged to have quite a good DAC.

How good?

Those of you with some experience on this matter - please speak up! It is stomping your Berkeley DAC? Empirical? Weiss? Peachtree? Cambridge? Devilsound?

(Is it listenable?!)

The world wants to know!

I have ripped much of my CD collection in FLAC to my hard drive and wirelessly play them through the SBT with coax into a DAC Magic. It sounds identical to my CD player and radio never sounded so good. AM and FM are crystal clear. I can now toss my CD player and my Sansui TU-717 tuner. I cannot tell any improvement in sound with or without the DAC Magic. Maybe because it and the SBT have Wolfson chips.
