Yes. The sound from the headphone socket was much better - it uses the SB3's DAC directly. The sound via analog to the receiver was the one that sounded muddy/indistinct - this is the one that uses the receiver's ADC to digitize the sound. It was quite a surprise and a rude awakening. I suspect not many A/V receivers do analog very well. I remember the two Denon units I had before this weren't good on analog sources either, but I didn't have an SB back then so I couldn't compare directly. -- Mark Lanctot ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mark Lanctot's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2071 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=25805 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
