Connecting an SB/TP to an external DAC doesn't necessarily add more jitter to the overall signal than the one obtained by listening to the analog outputs of the SB/TP. Let alone the fact, that jitter is just -part- of the problem, as you know. And that the quality of the analog parts and design is another.
All in all, the "asynchronous" part, is exactly the same than -say- the CD output of any decent CD device controller. You're just at the beginning of the problem. As you know. -- Themis SB3 - North Star dac 192 - Denon 3808 - Sonus Faber Grand Piano Domus ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Themis's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=14700 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=52817 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
