That is plain poo poo. The NAD M5 SACD outs sounded better than my Squeezebox driving a late model Benchmark DAC1. Not to my ears alone but the the DAC 1s owner as well as another dudes. On redbook it was much closer and would really require days to evaluate.
BTW my squeezebox has a massively upgrade power supply.
Of course the convenience of the SB3 is unbeatable, but you need a really great DAC to "blow away" a GOOD cdp.
