. Put a drop of hot glue on gain knob to lock it in place. If
the there are two gain knobs (one per channel) then match the second
channel by voltage, not the shape of the signal.
Hope that helps.

Phil- Looks like we're neighbors. Didn't even know about you guys.
I'll have to come visit you next week sometime.
Do we know anything yet about DAC3?

If you can, move the furniture that your equipment is on away from the
corner. Pull the speak out of the corner and put it on top of
something. When you're able, buy a nice stand for them. This is all
free, and will make an immediate improvement to your sound.

I agree with ezkcdude. It's that we already own the PC that makes the
SB marketable.

Point them in a bit and you'll find the imaging will improve. It will
also stay more centered for those sitting away from the middle of the
room.

For semi-DIY'rs, it's too bad someone doesn't make this cable. I'd
certainly be a buyer of one.

I think you should start a comparison like this with WAV files. It's
uncompressed PCM data. Everything should then be compared to the WAV
file as a standard.

Yes, if the encode/decode is perfect and nothing else effects it. My
point is that WAV is the only format that doesn't require ANY
translation or processing either by Slimserver or Squeezebox. It is a
true reference.

Chris- That second link doesn't work. Can you check it please? I'd
really like to see what you did.
Thanks.

switch. Mind you, this is with a stock DEQ2496 into a
Behringer A500 running Energy C-6 speakers. It's not an audiophile
setup by anyone's definition but the difference was night and day.
Here's the cable I purchased:

I connect my SB3 to a DEQ2496 and I'd really like to use AES. The DEQ
doesn't have coax in so I'm stuck with Toslink for now. Does anyone
know of a mod that adds XLR to SB?
