For the headphone test, I brought the SB into the same room with my computer. For the speaker test, I had to walk into the other room, make the change, walk back, listen a bit, then restart the track. You have to change the setting on the server, and then restart the track to make sure it's actually changed. You can verify this by trying to ff or rewind - if it works, you're streaming flac. I don't hear a difference on mine (using analogue outs, although I also did a quick listen with the digital outs -> DAC AH), and I think my ears are reasonably good - I'm an (amateur) musician since age 4, come from a musical family, have been studying and listening to music my whole life. Furthermore I can hear higher frequencies than most people (for example the noise of a TV screen, which is around 16 kHz). So I don't think there's anything wrong with my ears. If you hear a difference, maybe your SB is broken and you should send it back for repair/exchange. -- opaqueice ------------------------------------------------------------------------ opaqueice's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4234 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=22936 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
