just one person's opinion.

[SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Volume control question-Does it threw out bits?

2008-06-01 Thread kbuzz

Newbie here with a basic question. Does the internal volume control on
the SB3 affect the quality of music?  In other words, is it better to
max out the SB internal digital volume control and use the volume on a
pre amp?  

I think i recall somewhere that the transporter at the high end of the
vol range only throws away minimum bits, but not sure about the SB3 or
a levels say 70-95 percent

Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Anyone tried ERS Cloth on their Power Supply

2008-05-03 Thread kbuzz

I took a standard piece and cut it in half. One of the top and one half
on the bottom of my dac.  Definately had some effect, just cant tell if
positive or not.  With that said, mid range clarity is reduced, high end
grunge significantly reduced.  This is at the expense of some "you are
there" clarity.  This maybe too much of a good thing

I left the bottom half under the dac, and wrapped the remaining half
around my bolder modded elpac power supply.  sound is now quite muddy,
thick and well poorthis may not be a great test as the SB3 and
elpac are still breaking in. In other words, the poor sound right now
could be a dip in the break in process.  I have found up and downs in
break in...

Ill run some more break in tones and the xlo break in cd for another 25
hours or so.if sound remains the same, i may have to cut up the ers
in smaller pieces.  Concepttually, i cant see how the ers on the elpac
could have any negative effect at all...but i await further word from
this board and additional break in and experimentation

[SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Anyone tried ERS Cloth on their Power Supply

2008-04-30 Thread kbuzz

Has anyone tired any of this stuff on a SB power supply-either a stock
modded elpac type?  I've been fooling around with it on my dac and its
starting to peak my curiosity after initially thinking it had no effect
