Hi Sean! Thanks for taking the time to reply. I don't consider you a sceptic of all things audiophile. It is the "a volt is a volt"-brigade I'm addressing. BTW, the switcher issue might need to be addressed differently. How much noise is dumped into other components via the power outlets? Measuring a few different SB3+DAC setups as complete systems might be interesting. If a switcher causes increased jitter on the receiving side -through power supply ingteraction- then it would explain the difference. (Not to mention possible effects on analogue circuitry upstream.) -- P Floding ------------------------------------------------------------------------ P Floding's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2932 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=25773 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
