I'll not make the obvious jibe.

Presumably it sounds good on the stereo - what components do you have hooked up to the Rio? What about others?

I'm using all Arcam FMJ stuff, so if the Rio even sounds a little suspect, it'll get amplified nicely.

I guess I'm asking if the Rio is going to sound better or worse than the empeg connected to the home HiFi. Personally I like the empeg output on the home hifi, but it's not as good as I might like.

I'd do a test with .wav to see if it's my MP3's or the empeg, but I can't (at this point).

Does the Rio support wav???
