The problem is that even when you convince poeple that this is correct (which s it) they then go onto say that there must be something else happening within the device to create the (apparently) audible differneces. Things like the processor being taxed more, which has an impst on the power supply which impacts the DAC which changes the jitter, which sound worse/different.
There is no win to this argument from an enineering standpoint. I read the Audiophile threads, but they make me angry, so i don't usually contribure :) -- funkstar ------------------------------------------------------------------------ funkstar's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2335 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=38258 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
