that's what i thought. common sense right? but then i read someone's observation that they tried this, and it was *still* only an attenuation affect, not complete isolation. yes, even with a reclocked FIFO RAM buffer. sounds unbelievable, but he had the measurements to back it up. you can also hear still hear differences in transports - e.g. the Chord DAC's have a buffer reclocking option, it does reduce the audible effect but you can still hear the difference between a "good" and "bad" transport. i can't remember where i saw the measurements, i will try to find them. -- dorkus ------------------------------------------------------------------------ dorkus's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3373 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=21415 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
