Indeed - so far nobody has answered this question except to say that the buffer isn't big enough to hold enough music to form an opinion... Which is complete and utter rubbish as far as I am concerned. I'm still not sure that people understand we have really bad aural memory and if it takes hours or days for us to decide if something is better or worse that almost certainly means it is hasn't changed at all! -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal...
