One more data point on the "USB conditioners" here: 'Whats Best Forum:Science Thread-Review of Audioquest Jitterbug and Uptone Regen USB Conditioners' (http://www.whatsbestforum.com/showthread.php?18580-Science-Thread-Review-of-Audioquest-Jitterbug-and-Uptone-Regen-USB-Conditioners).
Remember that Amir definitely isn't known for being in the "bits are bits" camp, but here is his summary: "Simply put, there is no good news here. Both devices degraded the performance of the DAC a bit and did nothing to improve it." And in "Conclusions": "For my money, I think a rock from the garden put on top of my DAC may do better than either one of these devices. For the price of Regen, you can buy 10 high-res downloads and I am confident that would bring more happiness to your music life than this device." "To try to judge the real from the false will always be hard. In this fast-growing art of 'high fidelity' the quackery will bear a solid gilt edge that will fool many people" - Paul W Klipsch, 1953 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Julf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=42050 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=104340 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
