along with a plain-as-a-cheese-sandwich Western Digital spinning rust drive. Not even NAS quality!According to this article , the dCS Network bridge is also based upon general components:
"Inside, proprietary dCS code runs on standard hardware from StreamUnlimited, in this case the Stream 820, chosen for its Wi-Fi support and other improvements over the Stream 800 board used in the Rossini...the core upsampling and format conversion is achieved with custom code running on a Spartan-6 processor."
They can be found for about $26 on Ebay.
It does, however, have a heroic linear power supply. My guess is the NAD uses a SMPS to drive all the works given its universal 100-240V rating.
