The simplest measurements of them all would be at the analog output of a DAC any DAC, even if a product do "improve" stuff farther up in the chain, whats eventually matters is whats leaving the DAC . If a professional magazine or site reviews they better test a whole bunch of DAC's with different design to see if the effect varies if its there at all . Why this product in this tread ? start a new tread on the regen , the other one got closed . On that can the mods please start a separate keny and arny slugfest tread :D (with a theme song only aviable as DSD128 ) it would improve the S/N level (no i dont care who started it's probably decades ago in another forum unrelated to squeezeboxes , but it's evident that we see much more jkeny when arnyk is around ?) then they can go over and figth it out and then return to the normal tread to debate on topic win win . -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.
