  4. I agree with you there, Dinny. He's all, like, "hi-rez is teh awesome, OMG my eyes are opened!" but doesn't really ever get down to a review of the sound like he would with any other "conventional" component. Most egregiously, he has the top-of-the-line Ayre disc player as his reference and can't be arsed to give us the obvious assessment of how the computer-based system compares to that. I think it comes back to the fact that most of these old-line audio guys still find this sort of stuff a bit of a mind fuck and they don't really know where to slot it into their personal frame of reference. So its OK to compare two PC playback chains but we don't want to get into whether this is a good as a real hi-fi source. Whatever, they made it an A+ recommended component, which ought to sell a few.
