I agree. I'm concentrating my current/future improvements on EMI/RFI shielding, grounding arrangements, mains filtering etc. I have a complex setup with a large number of aerials (mains leads!) transmitting and receiving. It's a bit of a rats nest TBH. Also there are a fair few cheap SMPS's (router, HDMI switchbox etc) that probably warrant some attention. I do have an external earth spike, but I can't claim to have a star-ground arrangement. All that testing of the Touch has lead me to a small epiphany. I'm not seeing any issue with the signals out of the Touch. I'm going to turn my attention elsewhere. -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal...
