Good grief. All the people are "convinced that this is not a placebo thing" and that makes it NOT a placebo thing? If you haven't tested using blind or double-blind methods, thereby isolating knowledge of the test condition from the test, the results simply cannot exclude the placebo effect. > Both me and Hammer have a very fine tunned system. > If we remove all the "isolation transformers" and "power cleaners" > external DAC etc > we propably not going to hear any differance or have much more > difficult to distinguish between "good" and "Bad" sound. Hmmm. Allow me to recap what I've read: You've _modified_ a Squeezebox such that you claim to hear a difference, and then call it a "design miss" but go on to state that an unmodified SB3 would probably not exhibit the problem. You can't _measure_ any difference so far but still insist there is a difference. A bunch of people you asked to listen for a problem believe they heard the problem. You don't perform your listening tests in a way that would exclude awareness of the test condition. But there's *no* chance that this is a perceptual problem... it simply has to exist because you heard it. Okey dokey. I'm done... I've finally crossed the bridge. -=> Jim -- JimC ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JimC's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9428 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=36503
