The Touch has already been shown to have low jitter, why not take some measurements and demonstrate the improvements all the tweaking brings about. Seriously, I don't think I've ever read as many audiophile superlatives as are in the Touch mod threads anywhere in any medium. Any audiofool magazine looking to recruit reviewers need look no further than that thread.
and I'll say it again, I cannot help but wonder how many of the tweakers have the equipment and listening space to be able to resolve and discern the so called differences. Is it any wonder even the tweakers are finding the outcome of the tweaks are not universal? Now I suppose that comes down to differences in quality or function of components in the Touch. It couldn't possibly be that the tweaks are actually meaningless. dasmueller;683315 Wrote: > this is not the newcomer forum, so we need to be conscience of them and > taylor our discussusions here?

People looking to learn or glean insight into particular aspects of audio were able to gain a lot of insight by participating in this "audiophile" forum. With the current proliferation of baseless BS, that's no longer the case, the S/N ratio in this forum is out of control and many of the former participants are no longer here for that very reason. -- audiomuze *'Linux finally gets a great audio tagger' (http://www.ubuntugeek.com/linux-finally-gets-a-great-audio-tagger.html): 'puddletag' (http://puddletag.sourceforge.net/)* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ audiomuze's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=33613 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=92918 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
