To be clear, I still believe that good quality DAC's and CD player's sound different. I believe that the Transporter sounds better than the Squeezebox. But I'm not sure. I'm just saying that the question is worth investigating. The whole hobby is a minefield, filled with charlatans, crooks, honnest but ignorant people who put forth pseudoscientific theories. You know as well as me that some people claim that their 100K$ cables sound a lot better than 60$ Radio Shack cables. "Just listen and be convinced." Which is complete BS, AFAIK. > But why don't you try it out for yourself, if you don't think there is a > difference spend your money elsewhere. Thanks but no thanks.

Don't understimate how much our expectations and our preconceptions can influence what we perceive or not, or what we think we perceived or not. -- Nostromo ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Nostromo's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=6322 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=33368 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
