Hi John, About the ADM differences, the tryals with Phil explain to me that are due to the cloks drifting between the DA converten of SB nd the AD converter of USB soundcard, I could 'lock' in his system and reported that tis eiminated any differences.
The point is that in 'real life' playback you could not lock the clock! Anyway, could you please report wich differences in sound you heard (maybe you already did, but i can't find...sorry). I resume mime, are yours any silimar? a) Stereo Image: Playng the Wave file, the scene is more focused and deeper, but smaller, means that if you play i.e. "Old Love" from Eric Clapton Umplugged album, mr. Clapton seems to be 10 cm shorter, the bass is behind and not on top of the voice, the piano asolo is not so far in the left. b)Sound 'color': Playng Flac, voices, arcs and cimbals are a little bit 'harder' and cold, some 'electric' take place, in wave they are smoorher, some more air around and more 'natural'. No big differences in bass, maybe a bit more control in wave. Intresting to know. thanks.
