Logitech Squeezebox Touch DAC: How Good?

Logitech Squeezebox Touch's are allegedly raining out of UPS trucks into the arms of new owners, as we speak.... or as you read this ;-) NOW, advance word is that the analog out is a huge step up from it's predessor. It's alleged to have quite a good DAC. How good? Those of you with some experience on this matter - please speak up! It is stomping your Berkeley DAC? Empirical? Weiss? Peachtree? Cambridge? Devilsound? (Is it listenable?!) The world wants to know! Art Artmaltman  (System | Reviews | Threads | Answers | This Thread) 04-19-10

It served me well for two years or so until I upgraded to a Berkeley Dac. The Benchmark was wonderful. Nice soundstage, very good reslution, squeezed the details right out of the music. Very truthful to the recording. Lots of fun to listen to and not fatiging at all. Use a good digital cable.
