You mentioned the 205 solving connectivity issues for you. I’m having a connectivity problem too. I want to combine digital and audio, two colliding systems, to my three more than decent stereo systems, only one of which has a connection to digital via my desktop computer. I looked into buying Network Streamers (Naim and Linn) and ran into major problems with Sticker shock, and I still needed at least one good DAC (more $$$).. Now it seems that the 205 may actually be the link I need to “marry” my analog stereos with a digital source. Is that what you are thinking? Though I might need two 205s, one for my living room stereo, the other for my TV stereo.
“Interesting that you mentioned your 105 solving connectivity issues in your system. That benefit was a strong incentive for me to buy a 205. Remains to be determined if my system connection plan with the 205 pans out but, on paper at least, it may be an ideal hub to dovetail my tv/video and 2 channel audio.”
