http://www.sony.com/electronics/audio-components/hap-s1Hello!
I stumbled upon this video out of total randomness:
Using A Hi-Res Audio player to resurrect my ripped CDs (Part 2) - Sony HAP S1Turns out I have similar requirements to that of the author of this video.
So, although if you know me I'm not a SONY fan, I've been looking for more information on this device and similar gears.
I like the idea of quickly playing in high-res format my CD/SACD collection while retaining the original discs.
No remote/network storage, just all the collection on the device with quick controls.
I'd have to re-rip all my CDs to FLAC, but that's OK (500G can hold 1450 CDs at 350MB/CD after FLAC encoding).
More interestingly the device plays DSD/DSF files that can either be
purchased online or ripped through a 1st-gen PS3 with hacked firmware/OS. Sadly I don't have a PS3 able to do that.
Does anyone here toyed with such devices before?
