Amarra Mini on sales for $299. Anyone tried it?
I am starting to have interest in this iTunes add-on. Anyone played with it?

The sale is what got me thinking. My MacBook with Apogee DAC, iTunes music server sounds almost as good as using Sony SCD-1 as a transport spining a CD with the same DAC. From what I've read, Amarra Mini is night and day difference and there is no going back. If this is true I will sell the CDPs I have.

My MacMini setup is already sounding pretty close to original CD spinning in the SCD-1 to the same Apogee DAC. I just need Amarra Mini to fill the small gap. At $300, I think I am going to give it a shot. I do have 30 days to return it if I don't hear any improvements.
