I bought a SqeezeBox, hoping that I might be satisfied with the analogue outputs it provides, however I'm itching for a better source.
I don't really need the SqeezeBox as my source, as I was perfectly happy using Airport Express, and could easily go back to that and sell the Sqeezebox. Ideally, the source would have variable analogue outputs that I can connect directly to my powered monitors.
So, that leaves me with either spending an additional $500 to mod the SqeezeBox (full Red Wine mods (minus AC supply)), or around $800 to sell the SqeezeBox and get a standalone DAC (and I'd be more than happy to spend less than that!). Balanced outputs are not required, and in fact I'd prefer a purely single ended design.
Any suggestions?
