OK, can you provide a few details? How many trials did you do, and what was your score? Are you certain there were no clues you could use to tell which was which? For example when my SB3 powers on, there is a slight pop from the speakers, so that would need to be avoided (for example by turning down the volume during the power off/on cycle). Presumably the test wasn't double blind, but that's probably OK at this level so long as your girlfriend was careful not to give you any clues, verbal or otherwise. Mainly, the important thing is to go into the test in good faith, understanding that what you thought you heard might be placebo, and trying your best to eliminate all possible clues so as to make the test fair. If you do that, report a little bit on the details, and the result is positive, people will take this seriously and try to understand why it's happening. Until then, the odds are overwhelming that this is placebo - I say that based both on knowledge of jitter, the SB3, etc., and on extensive experience with audiophiles. -- opaqueice ------------------------------------------------------------------------ opaqueice's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4234 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=36503
