I have a Harman Kardon AVR 3600. It has a 192kHz/24-bit DAC. Is this considered a good DAC? I'm looking at different options for getting my digital media to my speakers including Sonos, SqueezeBox and Boxee Box and I would like to know how the receiver's DAC stacks up vs theirs.

    I have an older HK 630, love it, and a squeezebox classic v. 2. I use the dacs in the sb, as I find them a little better than those in the HK (even though I don't think the ones in the hk are bad at all). I have read that the touch's dacs are even better, so chances are if you went that route you would be happy!
