You say it gives the "cleanest sound possible", but I'm skeptical. The ART Cleanbox is inexpensive (about $40 for a stereo unit). It balances the signal by means of transformers. Good quality audio frequency transformers are expensive (like >$50 for a single channel). I see a possible problem here.
Then again, I've not heard the Cleanbox. If ART really have developed good quality audio transformers at this low price, then they've built one of the holy grails of pro audio. -- cliveb Performers -> dozens of mixers and effects -> clipped/hypercompressed mastering -> you think a few extra ps of jitter matters? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cliveb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=348 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=35140 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
