How good of you to go into somewhat more detail, but why would the above apply to S/PDIF only, and not AES/EBU as well (up to that point, you took care to include both or compare)? Just a momentary lapse in your train of thought? betto;229880 Wrote: > So from an audiophile standpont, a squeezebox with world clock input-and > toslink output, would be warmly welcomed, and 24/192 capability would > let experiment upsampling algorithms and stay future-proof.i Of course > you should have a DAC with the masterclock inside, but in that case > you'd be very close to perfection. Read my initial post at the start of this thread: isn't this what I was asking for? Glad to have found someone who picks this up at last. Greetings from Switzerland, David. P.S. Sorry to say this, but you -are- aware you're not giving a reason for audible differences between S/PDIF and AES/EBU connections (all else being equal, of course), but that it follows from what you're saying that there shouldn't be one? No offense, just trying to make sure I understand you correctly. I seem to have missed any implication that you know of a/the reason. -- acousticsguru ------------------------------------------------------------------------ acousticsguru's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13298 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=38637 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
