Two years ago, I set out on a quest to understand why certain cables/CD
transports, DACs, etc. sound better than others.
One of my long time audiophile friend, who happens to be in high-end
audio bussiness for 30+ years and he himself an audiophile told me its
partly because of the power supply a
Earwaxer,
I have searched computeraudiophile.com and I was unable to find Gordon
suggesting that he could hear the difference between USB cables using
his 'async' process.
Can you post a link to this?
Thanks,
Andy.

Well, that certainly explains why every time I try to open a file off my
USB drive, the data in the file seems to have changed spontaneously. I
was wondering why my old digital photos had slowly gotten more pixelated
over the years.

Yes. the first bit is total nonsense. My TACT processes data at 48 bit
resolution and is is 5+ years old...
However, redbook is 16 bit and can NEVER be any more than that no
matter how big a budget is granted to the Marketing department.
Information can never be added, only lost...
