Hope I am still making sense.
Just one thing I wonder, if by any chance the (A, B, C) descriptions got a touch scrambled in the magic of 04:00 posting -- because from your descriptions of A and B, I'd expect that A might be clocked (if "using clock cable" is what you mean by clocked) and B unclocked. -- jbm0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ jbm0's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3949 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=27927 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
