RE: Don't worry....

I have an open mind, been doing this much too long not to... I just think some people have limited knowledge or experience and cannot comprehend or look at the big picture.

Do you really think when an audio manufacture put some parts in a pretty box and charges be $$$ does it automatically make it revolutionary or great? You can do this with anything in audio.

You can buy an expensive amplifier or build one that can sound just as good, I've been doing this for years. Same can be said for speakers, or turntables pretty much anything. I think it's foolish to total discount what people can do on their own and just insist that the pretty and expensive product from the manufacturer must always be superior.

If you have had bad luck getting good sound from a conventional computer system I'm sorry, but you cannot project this on everyone else. One of my current systems is actually just like some of the streamers that seem to be so loved, but without the pretty box or high-price. Proper power supply, case and cooling considerations, EMI and RFI considerations all play into making a good sounding system.

Believe me some manufacturers do not go this far, and for the average person this may be fine. You have to try to keep an open mind.
