Hi Guys

Posting this up on Twst's behalf as he is off this week [slacker :p]

Our friends at Kitguru have just posted a review of the fantastic EB01-E DAC & EB03 Amplifier combination from Silverstone.

I must admit that I was very sceptical of this combo when seeing the price tag but holding one in your hand, it is a very well built and stylish piece of equipment that had the sound quality to back up its good looks.

The quality of these really blew me away, but this is what we have come to expect from SST now.

REVIEW HERE

Pros:
- Excellent sound quality.
- Solid build quality.
- Attractive aesthetics.
- Simple installation procedure.

Cons:
- Included cables feel cheap.
