The other important points to remember here, is that we are talking about complex algorithms that take the digital data and process it. These algorithms are not "perfect" at this task.
Its just like in digital photography. I have old "raw" files (raw data off the sensor) that I now process with more advanced algorithms available today and get a MUCH better result. Even the designer of the chip (ex. Canon) has improved its algorithms over time. Is the date better? Same data. Handled in a better way. Same with audio. -- earwaxer9 System: modified Winsome Labs Mouse, modified Maggie MMG's, Transporter, HSU sub 12, MSB DAC to 500 watt sub slave amp, JPS labs power cords, Silver audio interconnect, Audioquest Granite speaker cable. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ earwaxer9's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=39527 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=82870 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
