Check out the results especially for 24/96 here http://archimago.blogspot.ca/2013/02/measurements-logitech-touch-as-transport.html If you use digital volume control, the signal could easily move 30db toward the small differences shown in the test, making them less small in practice. And practice is the only thing worth talking about. Now, I get it that the coax cable was unshielded and not properly terminated. But it does demonstrate there exists a physical mechanism for digital cables to pass data correctly yet measure differently. Hence "absolutely NO EFFECT" is actually incorrect, as stated. A year ago, suggesting such a thing would have made me a laughing-stock anti-science person. Today, I have a defense - a test Archimago has conducted. Has physics changed in a year? Think about it. What will next year bring? Check it, add to it! http://www.dr.loudness-war.info/ http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/richpub/listmania/byauthor/A3H57URKQB8AQO/ref=cm_pdp_content_listmania/203-7606506-5721503.
