I don't think your comment clouds the issue - that possibility remains. But once again, if the problem is EM interference from the switch mode PSU it should be much *more* audible without music playing or with a silent track. The TacT does some DSP. That's very unlikely to be affected by this level of EMI (otherwise your computer would crash when you plug in the PS for the SB). So the only culprit could be jitter induced by the EMI, or noise added to the analogue stage. Both are possible - Sean's measurements show that this doesn't happen with the SB, but it could with the TacT. However both are caused by the same effect - EMI making circuits noisy - and I see no reason why that would be audible in increased jitter but not as an increased noise floor. On the contrary it should be much easier to hear in the noise. But who knows - these are very complex systems. -- opaqueice ------------------------------------------------------------------------ opaqueice's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4234 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=32231 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
