RE: I knew

I could depend on you for detail and a fair shake on this.

Thanks! I'd like to believe that my assessment of various gear is not driven by cost or cosmetics alone. I remember some years ago hearing two completely unknown amps to me at Sea Cliff - the positively gorgeous Edge NL10 vs. the comparatively homely VTL Wotans. Guess which one I thought sounded better? Hint: look what amp is used upstairs. :)

As for "giant killers" I do believe they exist and own an example myself - the now discontinued Logitech Squeezebox Touch player. I remain amazed at how they function alone and especially when supplemented by an outboard DAC. I have two in service used in each of those modes (and a third NIB backup). While they really need a good server and network infrastructure to work their best, I already had such in place. Better certainly exists, but for considerably more of an investment.
