Yes, I got the Jameson as it is the recommended one for the Irish coffee. I did go through some whiskey review sites, since I am not into drinking hard stuff. The only brand I know from childhood days is JW. Re: Skin effect. Yes, it does not seem plausible (I have a CS/EE degree). But the funny thing. Audio sounds good only when so many things are addressed. Ultimately, it is difficult to tell which one made a difference. Audioquest have always been touting their 'polished' surface wires. Many say, the smooth surface, just reduces the oxidation, causing bad dielectric creation at the conductor/insulation boundaries. So my take is, we need a real scientific investigation into all these, but I am doubtful it will be conclusive. Meanwhile, I do all the 'tweaks' which even has a semblance of credibility, as long as it does not cost me a fortune. My SB3 seems to have improved over the last two months. Also, I feel switching off the display during playback makes a difference. But I cannot substantiate this. -- SoftwireEngineer ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SoftwireEngineer's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7000 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=29025 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
