Thanks guys - I do have a touch here, and it sounds very good, though I have never tried the analog outputs. The touch was intended to feed into an synch Wavelength Proton DAC, but with the snap, crackle, and pop issue, it is instead feeding into a little Music Fidelity V-DAC via Coax. It sounds magnificent. -Paul -- paul.raulerson ------------------------------------------------------------------------ paul.raulerson's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=50346 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=91002 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
