Crude, rough terms, subjective opinion, whatever. Like you, I've not noticed any degradation using the digital volume control.
But then, knowing how the arithmetic works, I wouldn't expect any audible degradation in a normal listening situation. So of course it's possible that, just as some audiophiles hear things which aren't there when they expect them to be (we've all been there), I could be failing to hear things which are there because I don't expect them to be (if you get my drift). -- cliveb Performers -> dozens of mixers and effects -> clipped/hypercompressed mastering -> you think a few extra ps of jitter matters? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cliveb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=348 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=27832 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
