I can, provided you don't use a literal definition of "blind" :)

The SB2/3 processor runs decoding and visualization in the same
hardware thread; because of how the codec works, the full-screen
spectrum analyzer gets a *much* lower framerate with onboard FLAC
decoding. I use that visualizer almost all the time, so I stick with
server-side decoding.

I agree, though, there probably isn't any difference in sound quality.
