160GB.

There's better hi-rez players around, some with potentially more storage and plenty of $200 DACs around.

You'll still need your PC to organize all your music and load your device.

I tried the OPPO solution, be it with the 95 version, but it costs well over $500 (recently I sold mine for close to $800). I didn't like it so much, the applications were kind of slow and kludgy. It did sound great with disks and playing back files from my harddrive though I did have to restructure the layout of my digital files on the drive. Ultimately it didn't have a digital input (the new model does) and it required a monitor and network connection(talk about adding to the cable mess).

I'd like a terrabyte solid state harddrive connected to somekind of black box that allows me to chose what music files are sent to my
DAC via a iPhone (or other) application. There's a device called the NODE that I think will do this. But such a setup is out of your range.
