hello sean thanks for helping, it turned out that my DAC was not working properly. I repaired it and it works like a charm with the SB2! first listening tests indicate that in comparison with the SB2 my own DAC reproduces music a bit warmer and "opens the stage" somehow - yet the differences are subtle, difficult to pin-point and I like the sound of the SB2 a lot as well.
btw, is there an explanation why FLAC files sound so much better than MP3 on the SB2 (analog output)? I maybe will try how (high quality, if that exists :) MP3 files sound through my own DAC. thanks again! nicola -- Nicola Fankhauser _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
