PC-Audio vs. High-end CD Player-GAME OVER
Has anyone noticed sonic differences between apple lossless and wav files? To me wav sounds louder and a bit more dynamic on itunes. I've only made comparisons on a pc and would like to know if mac users have experienced this?

Wireless USB
Email I received today from Icron about the Wiranger:You had previously expressed interest in operating an Icron WiRanger set with USB audio. I am not sure if you ended up getting a WiRanger yet or not, but we have released a WiRanger firmware upd...

Scott Nixon USBTD vs Wavelength Brick

Ayre C5xe or APL 3910 ?
Hi Alex, nice too see you post on this thread. Any chance of hearing your Denon in the NY area?Puremusic, thanks for the info. So far it seems those who've heard both APL and Ayre units prefer the APL by a wide margin. 
Ayre C5xe or APL 3910 ?

Ozzy, I'm a bit confused, you say the APL is in another league, but you also said you never heard the Ayre? No offense, just asking.
