Being housebound with Hurricane Dennis (fortunately little effect in the Tampa area)... I had my wife help me conduct a blinded test. This was done with S/PDIF out to my Yamaha RX-1000, feeding a Sunfire Cinema Grand, and ML Aerius speakers. I also turned off our 2.4 GHz wireless phones.
Picked three "revealing" test tracks, conducted total of 10 trials, randomly switched between Wired vs. Wireless B (five each). I was the only one listening... was correct only 40% of the time!! From my perspective, this proves a) NO significant difference between Wired vs. Wireless, and b) it's easy to be BIASED and believe what you WANT to believe! I appreciate everybody's input on this thread, and respectfully retract my statement that the difference was like "night and day". (Hmmm, maybe the UV light during daytime listening has an audible effect... <g>). -- sleepysurf aerius i, nht sub two, yamaha rx-v1000 (pre/pro), sunfire cinema grand 200 ~five (vertically bi-amped), squeezebox2 (streaming cd-quality audio), 300gb buffalo linkstation (remote flac audio file storage), blue jeans cables.
