I think you'll be very pleased by the D1's versatility and sound quality. Mine is approaching 250 hours on the burn-in and it's still evolving nicely. It already sounds superb with both my MacBook and Sony D-EJ2000.

But I'm also looking forward to rolling in the AD8066 opamp and AD8397 buffers, which HiFlight and jamato8 say elevates it on par with the Xin Reference.

Updated with the Cowon Q5.

Do any of the Archos players have digital output?

Through the DVR dock, so if someone gets the dock pinout, someone could make an SPDIF out cable or something.

Updated to include the Archos 605.

Hmmm...will it play with the LCD screen shut?

I think about portability here as being able to move freely about with the player stowed in a bag, pocket, etc.

Lol, back when I was clueless I had an iRiver iMP PCDP with optical out. I bought a TOSLINK cable and used it in my little Panasonic stereo.

I automatically thought SQ was better, not realising the DAC in the Panny was probably no better than the iRiver one. A simple way of making my Panny play mp3CDs I guess...
Blimey that iRiver was temperamental, it broke. It 'purportedly' played Ogg Vorbis back then.

Added!

Was the digital output through coax, optical, or USB?

Well, I always heard it referenced as spdif. It definitely wasn't optical or USB, therefore it was probably coax.

I've never tried it that way but it'd probably work, it's not very small (10" screen) so I guess it doesn't really fit into this category. It is a very nice screen though...even comes with a nice carry bag.
