ok, the Lavry sounds interesting. Unfortunately it is not many DACs that do it the right way. I suspect my TacT RCS, which would be sitting between the SB3 and the Lavry, embeds (integrates) any incoming jitter into the signal when the data is received. However, if the TacT can operate synchrouneously from input to output, then a Lavry on the TacT's digital output would be an interesting option. I'll have to investigate... -- P Floding ------------------------------------------------------------------------ P Floding's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2932 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=27452 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
