Thanks for this review which has inexplicably been devoid of even a single comment.  Don't let it dissuade you from expressing what you find vital.  This was quite well written and deserving of a small amount of commendation.    

 

Not only is this a tough crowd but a tough market to impress in.  Perhaps a broader look at a few of the lesser known offerings would have flushed out what is somewhat of an underwhelming, though safe to travel with and having much to recommend looking at it, device.  I couldn't possibly fault you for the fact what is currently possible is not currently possible to build and sell on the open market.  Style (aesthetics) in effect being a substitute for escaping that which binds reasonable amounts of enjoyment.

I agree. I like this review and am interested in this product. I should've thought about it before the last couple days so I could've brought one on the flight to and from Munich.

How did you do this?:

'You'll want to connect it via the supplied cables for playback of 24-bit, 96 KHz (or higher resolution) fare.'

 

Are you using the analog input, there is no digital input, right? 

 

What is the difference in SQ between Bluetooth and CD rips via analog input? 

Thanks
