Squeezebox Vs Duet


Which has better sound quality?
I really like the duet remote but if sound quality is better on the sb3 I could go that way and add the duet remote later.
Current 2 ch system is an Arcam se8 to Modded Lite Dac Ah to B&K reference 20. I am looking to make a move up in sound quality and at the same time add the convenience of pc based audio.
Thanks
Steve

I have never listened to either of these units. However, I can tell you 2 things:

1.) The digital outputs are the identical design.

2.) The Duet has lass crap on the supply rails, as the outboard SMPS does not have to power the display. There is still too much noise on the clock's supply on the Duet, but with a decent linear supply, there is hope for it.
