More On Listening to the Sampan Music Box.

I have listened to the Sampan Music Box driven by the Logitec Squeezebox Touch on and off for a few days. Listening to the Sampan Music Box driven by my smart phone was very engaging and exciting. However, listening to the Sampan Music Box driven by the Logitec Squeeze Box Touch is definitely a more audiophile experience: The elements of the soundstage are more clearly defined, instruments and voices are more cleanly delineated, there is more weight to instruments and voices, and the system sounds larger. There are also less electronic artifacts in the Music Box/Logitec Touch presentation. However, whenever I switch back to the smart phone the sound is livelier and the listening experience is a little more exciting. It is just amazing how the quality of audio available on smart phones keeps improving. I suspect some manufacturer will put a high quality DAC in a smart phone soon.
