Never claimed anything with regards to "golden ears". But there is a wide range between "golden ears" and "tin ears", and with the exception of some truly poor ears, I am confident that a majority of people could hear the difference between the stock power supply and a linear power supply on a SB3 in my system (thus, the open invitation for anyone on this forum to come to my place and spend some time listening). To my ears, "upgrades" in power supplies do one very specific thing...they reduce the sibilence I hear in the sound. Most noticeably, the "sss" sound on male and female vocals becomes less harsh and fatiguing. -- PhilNYC Sonic Spirits Inc. http://www.sonicspirits.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ PhilNYC's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=837 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
