I hooked up my RR2150 to my computer using the USB today , and it sounded pretty good actually. Sound quality isn't as good as a CD, but it's not unlistenable either.. I used a .wav format for comparing tracks. I'm still not up to speed on all the varying file formats and sizes when saving music to my hard drive, but I do my best. There was zero background noise, much better than the noisy Creative Live sound card's output.

I listened with headphones mostly, with my Sennheiser 595's being more forgiving than my speakers(Bose 601 series II). The music from the CD's are surely more lively, and it's more noticeable on the speakers than the headphones.

If I can ever get high-speed internet available to our home, I'd use it for some internet radio and other streaming audio for sure. That's ...... if .
