I fully trust that it sounds better in your system, the trouble comes when trying to understand how channel separation can be better when stereo crosstalk is louder. [settings 30/20 on the following equate to 75/50 currently: http://mysite.verizon.net/forumwebspace/RightMark/Test%20Reports/Volume.htm ] Those graphs seem to enforce one of the conclusions in the Neilson_Lund paper* : "An alternative is to to reduce the digital level in the playback environment prior to digital to analog conversion... The price for this constructional measure is a reduced signal-to-noise ratio in the D-to-A conversion circuit." * http://www.tcelectronic.com/media/nielsen_lund_2003_overload.pdf Which leads to my question: Does a Mobile Fidelity or other properly mastered album (Buena Vista Social Club is a good example that's listed in table1 of the above reference) sound better on your system with the reduced volume setting? -- Skunk ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Skunk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2685 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=31165 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
