Not much you need to mod, the signals are there.

I am still running SS 6.5.4 due to the lack of SHN support in SC.
That's why I was hoping to find an add-in that I can drop in
convert.conf, if that's where it should go.

Maybe it works for some, but I went from SC 7.0 to 7.3 and I got no
sound whatsoever, except from one radio station in mp3.
What does it take to use 7.3?

Hi Listener. Do you know what the input impedance and gain of your amp
is? Also, the output impedance of your preamp? Did you have trouble
finding cables that would work OK. It seems that this is more an art
than a science, but I would like to find out the parameters I need to
stay within to be a

I've been using a PS Audio 4.6 in passive mode for about 20 years. I'm
happy with it.
Soon I'll move to using a single input stereo volume control with
balanced input and output cables.

Jitter in the digital world is like noise in the analog world; it's
everwhere. Every component, including cables, contributes to jitter. You
can't avoid it. Of course, if you don't reduce jitter from wherever it
comes from (including cables), you will have problems. My point is that

I sent an inquiry to S.N., whose response is not surprising, but does
support the validity of why re-clocking is necessary in reducing jitter.

Not all clocks seem to be created equal either.
According to an engineer from Linn Products (admittedly a comptetor,
but he did write a Squeezecenter emulator for Linn's DS range, so may
know what he is talking about):

There is a lot of bad information floating around with respect to hi-fi
equipment. A digital cable either works, or it doesn't work. If it
doesn't work you would hear pops, skips or dropouts in the audio. There
is no way you would hear a change in tonality. A digital cable carries
1's and 0's. If
Yeah ... and there's the kicker. I'm in Australia, and I bought it from
an ebay seller in the US. That will teach me ... uuggghh.

Good point about the heater circuit. I never came across that kind of
problem before, but it certainly sounds possible.
I'm still curious why it seemed to work OK with the dealer's system.
Maybe his McIntosh amp had a lower gain than my Classe. This might have
