So, there's nothing wrong with Toslink, huh? True, but in the same article he also said using a 20 FOOT length of generic plastic TosLink gave a sound that "was hard to distinguish from the electrical connection" (COAX) He also said using the TosLink from a SqueezeBox "resulted in sound that kept distracting me from the computer" ...
Not sure if that means the DAC3 is excellent at dealing with jitter or that the TosLink connection produces insignificant jitter ... or maybe a bit of both ... ;-) -- USAudio SB3 > CIAudio VDA-2/VAC-1 > CIAudio PLC-1 > CIAudio D-200 > Revel Concerta F12 + SVS SB12-Plus ------------------------------------------------------------------------ USAudio's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=8580 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=33146 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
