    That seems like an incredible value. At that price point,almost seems too good to be true. That looks like it would be a great solution for some folks.
    See my profile for list of gear.

    I didn't see the price on there, but seems like a decent tool so long as the software is easy to navigate and the price is right.

    I dunno Marv, seems to me much of it is redundant. Maybe answer some questions yourself....like, do we need a CD burner with todays lossless music being streamed by more than a few now ? The amplifier section in these things are usually weak and not great sounding, and same can probably be said for the dac.

    Can you obtain the same result with other gear you probably already have laying around ?

    HT SYSTEM-
    Sony 850c 4k
    Pioneer elite vhx 21
    Sony 4k BRP
    SVS SB-2000
    Polk Sig. 20's
    Polk FX500 surrounds

    Cables-
    Acoustic zen Satori speaker cables
    Acoustic zen Matrix 2 IC's
    Wireworld eclipse 7 ic's
    Audio metallurgy ga-o digital cable

    Kitchen

    Sonos zp90
    Grant Fidelity tube dac
    B&k 1420
    lsi 9's
