I can't figure it out why though. Some people contend that the wifi card in the Touch generates interference and/or unnecessarily taxes the Touch's CPU, leading to reduced sound quality. The evidence to back up these contentions is, shall we say, sketchy and highly idiosyncratic. You could try temporarily connecting your Touch via wired (ethernet) to see if you hear any difference. Buy an extra long run of ethernet cable for the test if you need to -- it will come in handy again at some point I bet.
If you are not getting dropouts at present, despite having two wireless hops, then you should continue to be fine continuing as you are. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ aubuti's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=94923 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
