Dismissing the effect of the processor outright seems foolhardy when one of the fundamental benefits of Sb3 (IMO) is considered- getting the sound out of the electrically noisy PC. Here's a thought; how do we know some of these lesser quality external converters connected through an inferior transmission interface don't continue to sound better than the sb3 because of the very fact that we haven't really gotten the sound 'out of the computer' at all? Engineers do at least consider things like this: http://www.analog.com/UploadedFiles/Application_Notes/43539362EE_253_Rev_1.pdf Which is in no way meant to suggest such precautions weren't taken by slim devices. I suppose since we are getting better than spec'd conversion performance out of Sb3 there isn't much room for interrogation :-) -- Skunk ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Skunk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2685 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=32999 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
