Exactly the reason that the Audiotron was my first choice but with the
DDAR being so silly cheap at the time who could resist a couple (kudos
to Graham Howe for that escapade). With hindsight the DDAR suits me fine
as the main reason for one was music in the dining room and it's
*almost* exactly the same width as the Pioneer midi system that I have
there anyway and slightly less in depth so it worked out fine.

As for sound quality, it's more than adequate for background music but I
would not use it as my main quality source of tunes.

Now if we got a deal....

;-)
