I used to run my SB3 into a 518 before running it into the F80 via a CO2 coax-to-toslink converter. After learning that the F80 has a PLL on its optical input, I removed the 518. George, the headphone socket of the SB3 (and Touch) can be used as an IR port. You use a 3.5mm IR emitter lead.  Embargoed? Me? Impossible!

Will Jitter be a issue on the SBtouch digital out? Also the touch will have absolutely no impact on how my music will sound will it? Because I'll be using the F80's dac right? You can always stick it through a 518... How much jitter-busting does the F80 do, by the way?

The SB Touch works beautifully into the F80 with optical. Nice combo.

I've run the SBT into the 8k's and I can tell you it sounds fabulous (for boring old-school SPDIF on co-ax at least;))
seriously...it is very good and the GUI is great too.
Ronnie, I wonder if we have to put up some bail money ?
Rgds,
Nick

If you think listening to music is fun, try learning an instrument.

I'm streaming Apple lossless files from my macbook pro through an airport express into my G91A. I would think that via mini-toslink into the M80 this would be very high quality as well.
