Hi neighbor Dave. I was in on those earlier posts. I share your concern. My 'take away' from earlier discussion is this:
There are those that feel that ANY digital volume attenuation will compromise sound quality (I assume because it will result in "lost bits" of information). Others, like SuperQ, believe that properly-executed digital attenuation has no effect on sound quality. One of the ways cited to "properly execute" attenuation is to do it in 24 bits, which is how Transporter does it. SO.... we never got consensus. But maybe if someone could run us through the technical rationale for why attenuation in 24 bits will not affect sound? Anyone? -- atkinsonrr ------------------------------------------------------------------------ atkinsonrr's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7214 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=28133 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
