...but rather on notional adherence to what I call conventional theory, what you call accepted engineering practice?That's interesting.
Here we have a device that, to my ears, in preliminary trials, way outperforms some much (much!) more expensive units that *do* conform, yet, "This unit costs too much based on the problems they've claimed to solve because there are simpler more effective solutions."
Huh!
Hey, did I quote you correctly here? The first time I, cut & pasted your words, but somehow managed to get it wrong. (!)

Clarke - I understand what Ted is saying and I have to say I agree with him, speaking as another seasoned engineer. I believe it could have been produced at a much lower price. I suppose it was almost built "mil-spec" to be impressive and believe me, the hardware is impressive looking. My believe is that these one-box computer server/players will soon be a thing of the past as the Intels, Apples, and Microsofts finally succeed in integrating the PC into the "digital home".
...so too could the NAIM, the Wadia, the EMM, the dCS... the Mercedes, the Maserati...Your statement is a truism.
As for your beliefs about PCs, I've heard some of the results and remain unimpressed.

Clark - Maybe at next years THE Show... BTW, one of your PF guys has my Off-Ramp I2S and is comparing it to his Squeezebox and his DAC-1 right now.
