British mag's: Bad review in a Brit mag on a Non Brit product? Wow! That's a first! Wake up. I have had the 296/8 for about 1.5 years. It is the best there is (although the remote is not going to impress anyone with its looks, but it works). ML360S? Yes, it has a nicer looking face plate, and that's where it ends.
Muse 8 tranport + 296 DAC, the best?
Im about to buy used for 3.500$ this combo and I really liked the sound but I have not heard many alternatives in this for me very expensive price range. Is there a better alternative I should listen to? I have a huge CD collection so I m manily intrested in redbook CD sound. I recall that this combo got rave review in Stereophile but was given a bad review in brit Hifi News mag !
