I am another that enjoys satellite music a lot. Like Dlr I get it through my DISH receiver; I have (long) interconnects running from the back of the DISH receiver to my preamp. Obviously the quality isn't top notch, still nice though, but I am down the hall when listening anyway. I have acquired new music due to the fact that I can play music that you simply can't get via the tuner where I am at, at least during the day.
Re-discovered Satellite Radio..
About a year ago, I had purchased Sirius SR-H550 home tuner and 3 year Satellite subscription. It sat there for a year, because I did not like the sound from it.
Recently, I was re-arranging my audio gear and connected the output of SR-H550 to the Apogee Mini-dac via optical cable.
Boy what a difference!
I love it, fount a station that plays my kind of music(Channel 4 Easy listening). Now I am listening to the Satellite at home all the time.
Granted, it is not CD, but it is clean and warm(Thanks to Apogee mini-dac to Balanced out to Mark Levinson).
Now my search has begun for a real DAC with balance out. Any suggestions?
Thanks
