More to the point, I no longer own a high quality CD player, having sold mine after buying an SB2. (You see, I do actually believe that computer based playback is a step forward - just not for the same reasons as you). I doubt that either of the kids' CD boomboxes would be considered sufficient for such a test :-)
In any case, such a test would be pointless. If I were report that there was no audible difference, you could simply suggest that either my system is not revealing enough, or I'm deaf, or I'm lying. -- 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=28621 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
