I'll go along with a possible difference but probably not audible. I would think the sound would change when the buffer finished filling, or when the display switched out of status mode to off, if these things made an audible difference. It's kind of like Sb3 is doing A/B comparisons, and if you don't hear the switchovers you failed to prove an audible difference. Since the Transporter sounds better, perhaps the benefits of any improvements in this area depend on other improvements, like a lower noise floor in general. -- Skunk ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Skunk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2685 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=32999 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
