Mike...

Just curious, but are you having problems applying effects to the song in song mode? That stuff sounded bone dry (the antithesis of 80's music ), and the drums particularly suffered form no ambiance or space around them...

To be honest, I can do stuff that at least equals that (and sounds more rounded) on the G70 as is. Try the Power Rock style, for instance. I wouldn't be surprised if the T3 and PA2 can easily give that a run for it's money, too.

In half the time (or just live, actually )...

Sorry, but the bit depth of the DAC's is the LAST thing anyone listens to...
