Hi c3p0, To come back to your setup, are you using the V-DAC with the SBT? I have to admit that I am currently totally confused about what to do: I have a very little or subtle improvement of SQ compared to analog (if not unexistent - you now the placebo effect) with the V-DAC connected to digital output of the SBT . So my question: did you experiment any A/B listening between analog and digital ouputs of the SBT with V-DAC? If yes, what is your setup? Do you use Toslink or RCA SPDIF, with low or high end cables? Do you hear a significant difference? Now that I fixed an evident power supply issue and improved in my opinion the analog out of the SBT using the Sbooster, I am really doubting about the benefits of the V-DAC. I thing the improvement is not really worth the 230 I paid for. And I am not sure at all that new speakers or high end cables would help make more difference between analog and digital out of the SBT. What's your opinion about that? -- evdplancke ------------------------------------------------------------------------ evdplancke's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=43147 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=81454
