ypsilon cd+dac is one of the best(imho best) digital source in the world i guess. I can not imagine how the silver version sounds, i believe it takes 500-1000 hours to complete burn in.
I understand the reason behind adding usb input etc, but if you have the ypsilon transport who needs a streamer and connect to dac. I did not hear a better streamer+dac combo then yspilon transport+dac, even yspilon transport(cd player) is valuable oponent against top dogs.
Chris I will follow this thread to read your impressions, please inform us...
