reducing the no of interrupts is a well known way of reducing noise. don't know why are you talking about having no interrupts, how would the usb device work without interrupts ? I would say that EDO without any mods is too bright and strident sounding. Others obviously don't have a problem with this sound. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SBGK's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=52003 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=94855 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
