I am afraid the term 'audible' is relative, Sir. My SB3's digital out changed over a period of time. I thought it was the linear power supply that I added that made the difference. I did an A/B with the included power supply, the difference with the linear supply was subtle and realized the SB2 overall has changed overtime. Re: warm-up. My earlier Int. Amp Audio Refinement Complete took atleast 20min to sound 'right'. Please dont tell me I am imagining this. I have had that amp for quite a few years. That is why I like my current digital amp. Sounds the same from the moment it is switched on (probably a few seconds but I can never tell :-)) If caps can change over time, why not an amp with lots of caps inside. Actually, it is the insulation which is changing, so even wires 'break-in'. When I got my Zu Ash, suddenly the bass was too tight and hard. After a while, the sound was very comparable to my old digital interconnect when I did a A/B. Re: instruments and other devices - If it is digital it should not matter (unless jitter is an issue). If analog, maybe people keep recalibrating the equipment or the break in even by the time, the machine is calibrated/certified. I think the issue is real. We should not jump to simplistic conclusions. -- SoftwireEngineer ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SoftwireEngineer's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7000 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=29025 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
