Squeezebox Classic - Do you like it?

I have a RedWine Audio modded sb2 and have not played my cdp for a couple of years. I have tried outboard DAC's and the inboard DAC and I don't see a great difference. Of course, alot of the mod was in DAC portion of the sb2, so the improvement over stock is pretty great. Also the power supply is a battery so noise is non-existent.

I use a tri-vista with mine and coudn't be happier.

I also love the older squeezeboxes.....

It's sure obvious from your comments that wireless is effective and a good way to remove those long cable runs. Most of you are hooked to name-brand DACs and that too is a key to quality reproduction. I would be going directly into the Krell HTS 7.1 processor and letting it do the DAC work. Your comments have convinced me that wireless is the way to go. Guess I would not be inclined to try the reclocker equipment until first experiencing the system without it. The only other alternative would be to put the iMac within 3' of the processor and run a short cable. Very limiting. Thanks much from each of you for your comments.

For Larryrx7 - what are you using for the battery power supply? Is it for your DAC or the RedWine Audio?

For others of you that have commented: Are you using battery instead of wall power? What about USB vs Toslink into your DAC or Processor?

I have a heavily modified Bolder Cable SB2 with the Nirvana Ultimate Power Supply. I had both the digital and analog mods done on it. I run it into an Anthem Statement D2 processor using the analog outs. I prefer the SB2 DAC to the DACS in the Anthem. I have about 2300 CD's ripped in lossless on two 500GB 2.5" HD's that hang off of a Vulcan Flipstart UMPC music server. I love the convenience of having my entire library at my fingertips; no more digging through racks of CD's for me.
