Just to be clear, I'm not making any such claims. Digital attentuation simply reduces SNR by the amount of the attenuation applied. However, this does mean that at full volume, there is no degradation as compared to putting additional analog circuitry in the path. That alone makes it the best solution **for a source device** IMHO. Then use a good quality preamp if you want analog attenuation. I would think the digital control _is_ actually better for the first 10-20db of attenuation. Really though we'd have to know what specific analog volume control circuit we're talking about.... > Furthermore the ability of using the Transporters digital output to feed > its own DAC would be desireable to those wishing to use other DSP > processors in line (like a TACT etc) I actually just got this working yesterday... new firmware coming very soon. -- seanadams ------------------------------------------------------------------------ seanadams's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=41756 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
