I defy you to do a real blinded A/B test and tell 320AAC from lossless. I have all Naim home gear, and I switched to 320AAC for convenience, size and streaming ability after determining that I couldn't even begin to tell one from the other.
Well, I'm going to get to do my own testing now- I got a $100 Amazon gift certificate and sprung for the NuForce Icon Mobile amp. What the hell- it's basically free to me (well, after the $68 Iphone line out cable...). Yeah, I know, "sorry about your wallet".
