 in which she claims that sound quality of music files degrades when sent

 to this problem. :D

Flippin' heck! What is wrong with these people? ;)

 Sure for most of us audio is a hobby but for lots of other people,
 especially people making crazy claims, audio is a BUSINESS.

I see that. I can't help but feel sorry for the people (and their
wallets) who buy into this crap!

Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] No sound from Transporter digital input

2010-08-25 Thread JackOfAll

You don't need to physically unplug the power to perform a reset. Just
hold down the power button on the remote and it will reboot. As soon as
you see the logo on the VFD after the reboot, hold down 1 on the
remote until you see the message that the xilinx is being reset.

Analogue volume control requires that Digital Volume Control is set to
Volume controls adjust digital outputs? When did this change? With
either setting, the analogue output levels are adjusted by the volume
buttons - erm, not anymore?

[SlimDevices: Audiophiles] I'm impressed

2005-12-31 Thread JackOfAll

Have owned a SB3 for only 3 days, but I'm impressed! I put myself slap
bang centre in the neurotic audiphool camp, primarily listen to vinyl,
(through tube amplification, of course ;-), don't have a lot of time
for the digital medium - it is a necessary evil with the lack of new
vinyl software and for music on the move. My digital collection is 90%
flac (ripped with cdparanoia or EAC secure), 10% ALAC ripped with
iTunes. I use Linux given the choice and have experimented with DIY
USB-SPDIF solutions and high-end soundcards to replace my CD
transport. I bought the SB3 as a toy to play with. Didn't expect a lot
from it, (based on my computer/digital experiences so far), but I'm
impressed. I'm damned if I can tell the difference between flac
streamed via the SB3 into my Sonic Frontiers Processor 3 DAC, and the
original CD played into the same DAC from the partnering SF Transport
3. (Especially impressed as ISTR that with the I2SE connection from
transport to DAC (transport slave to DAC clock) jitter  10ps.) I
bought the SB3 for front-room background music, but having used it in
my dedicated listening system, it's staying and I will be ripping the
rest of my remaining CD collection to flac. Will have to buy another
for the front-room.

I'm still waiting for the promised, 'perfect sound, forever' that I
bought into 23 years ago to be delivered. ;-)
