Sue me for following scientific principles. ;-) In fact that is your current strategy.

Given that they are so much easier for competent people to do, the measurements would be the more logical first step. Actually, the cart seems to be well ahead of the horse. The first easiest, most logical step is a measurement that accurately quantifies the real-world effect that we are trying to address. Failing that, the rest of the steps would be premature because they would be doing the hardest parts first. And, without adequate levels of artifacts, the rest of the steps are guaranteed to fail. However, I think you've tipped several people's hand including yours. I'd guess right now that none of you have any test equipment and you lack the competence and even interest in using it if you had it. Now you are ahoist your own petard. Your biggest hope is probably Archimelgo. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ arnyk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=64365 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=103684 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
