This is one of the reasons why long cables don't have to be involved for balanced I/O to show a SNR advantage. The simple fact that the signal travels between two different chassis is sufficient to cause grounding problems that balanced I/O can help. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ arnyk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=64365 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=105611 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
