Calling it a "downgrade" seems a bit over-dramatic to me. Ignoring design, which is purely subjective, the only thing the original has over the Slim is a Toslink SPDIF port. If someone needs that, then yeah, it's a downgrade. In most other respects though (noise, heat, energy efficiency, wi-fi, and size), the slim is superior. I personally prefer the design of the original, but if i had to pick up one or the other now, the Slim's advantages would make it the easy pick for me. It's in general a better put together piece of hardware. |
This. I love that red glow.
