Diablo was great until I hit about 3500' when the upper half of the quads on my right leg cramped. Hurt like hell. Doubled the electrolyte concentration of my water bottle, waited for the pain to subside and continued climbing. Got to the top (3864') and drank a whole bottle of gatoraid. Thankfully that was it for climbing for the day. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hrn8wzPQ1U4hd=1 -- SuperQ SuperQ's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2139 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=88667 ___ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles

You'll get the best out of the Touch by connecting it to a better DAC, imo. -- JezA JezA's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=21219 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85319 ___ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] soundcheck's Touch Toolbox 2.0
Hi guys. Router/network related issues are ususally causing some kind of rebuffering issues. We're talking about timeframes of a couple of seconds where crackling would occur. Alsa related underruns causing usually some kind of scratchy continous sound. Since I got my new router in place network related issues completely disappeard. Modern style routers are made for handling multiple HD-video-streams at the same time. They'll be able to cope quite well with our native-flac streams. If you think about upgrading check out e.g. the upper range Linksys products. For the hackers around here: Look for DD-WRT/openWRT compatibility. This way you can play around with tailor-made firmware, different settings, additional features and sometimes even better performance.

Sure you have all the sound effects turned off? Or is there some kind of plugin or something else you have going that is trying to make a sound effect?

[SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Transporter Popping Sounds
I just purchased a Transporter with the tube output. I love the sound, but the unit has a loud pop whenever it switches from normal resolution to 24/96 or 24/88. It is very annoying, especially since my Duets do not do this (although they do not play the hi defs natively). Is this really a known bug or an issue with my particular unit? Cannot imagine that this would go unrecognized, although I only found one post about it via Google. Really like the unit, but not sure that I want to have to turn the volume down every time I change sources. Thanks. -- shamanjr shamanjr's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=48112 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=88679 ___ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles

It must be because of the modds not done right.

No. The standard Transporter is a very very fine equipment out of the box. It was way before it's time, and still today it is a fine player/DAC. A shame to modd it.
