Sorry, but I gotta call BS on that. I think the only real signal loss for some of this stuff is between the auditory nerve and the auditory cortex. :) For those that would suggest the digital path sounds different then basically you're suggesting that something is causing signal errors when decoding flac? And if the analog path sounds different then it sounds like your DAC is faulty. Input of the same bitstream to a DAC (and the bitstream is provably the same) will cause the same output. Maybe I need to get out of this audiophile forum - I can't turn off the engineer side of my brain enough to drink the kool-aid. :) -- Meatwad650 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Meatwad650's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9725 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
