Linn gets true competition finally...

[manicm]

the_lhc:manicm:but I'll put it to you this way - no high-end make like Cyrus or Linn can be stupid enough not to learn from mistakes or make them twice. Have you considered a career in comedy?

Rhetoric is not always funny.

You'll certainly find this funny - Linn now supports iTunes streaming.

JohnDuncan:manicm:It's admittedly a niche, but few of these support 24/192 playback? Of-course Cyrus too doesn't say yet. Also, Cyrus seems to be the first to be putting any emphasis on usability/interface. tada:

Nope

Oh yeah you're right, no 24/192 support. For all that 24/192 content you've got.

manicm:but in response to you and Andrew they at least tried, unlike Linn or others

The in-depth user research extended to:

"What do you consider to be the most important from the below?

touch screen remote control
High performance audio
Upgradeability"

To which the obvious answer must be 'What, you mean you can't do all three? We have to choose just one?'

No, but that was genius.

Err, I've no idea why I'd find that funny, not being either a Linn or an iTunes user. Mind you I'm not sure why I'd find it funny if I was...

They missed:

4) a nice box

 

[Andrew Everard]

I thought you said exactly the opposite.

 

[manicm]

5) With knobs?

 

[manicm]

Andrew Everard:I thought you said exactly the opposite.

The horror, the horror

 

[Andrew Everard]

JohnDuncan:They missed:

4) a nice box

And: 5) Just the one silver

manicm:The horror, the horror

As they used to say in the Old West, "You should be on the stage - but you'd better get a move on, or you'll miss it"

 

[manicm]

Nah I prefer 'Get out of the road if you want to grow old'.

At which point this trolling thread really does seem to have reached its illogical conclusion.
