In that case I am glad I dont have one in the same home as my 'good' Hi Fi. I'm a little familiar with that market segment :) There are two types of audiophiles: those who prefer to live in fantasy, and those who like to know physics of the things. Both may love music though... I consider myself belonging to a second group. So far I haven't see too many valuable opinion that it's absolutely impossible to do a design correct enough to handle WiFi transmitter emitted noise. Not necessarily SD did that, but I hope so, they are serious guys. I would like to think I am in group 2 as well :-) I have a very technical and analytical background and like to prove things whenever possible. Its just sometimes with Hi-Fi its hard to find a rational explanation of all that you hear. Most of the time you can and the science prevails but not always. (I am not talking about green pens and bits of foil) Don't get me wrong, I am not knocking the SD products, I just don't want to take the chance. We are talking about relatively cheap consumer products that are built to a price. I once had a conversation with a very intelligent chap who designed and built prototype comms equipment for military applications. He was amused by the so called full duplex hands-free kits for mobile phones being sold for £20ish. He said his team had designed and built prototype hands free sets costing over £100,000 and they still weren't perfect full duplex. It just serves to illustrate what CAN be done is far from what we actually get to play with. -- London Lad SB3/ALW PSU>NAC552>NAP500>NBLs ------------------------------------------------------------------------ London Lad's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=6442 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=25835 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
