This is taken pretty much out of context, isn't it? I remember another research discussed here where the numbers were about 0.5ns, and still, everything was done using artificial signal which doesn't resemble music (this test apparently cannot be done with real music which complicates the situation), so noone can be sure the number is applicable to the real world listening. Also interesting how subtle difference is registered - I'm afraid in this kind of research the minimal level of audibility to register the difference is much higher then if the same people were listening relaxed with no goal in mind. -- 325xi simaudio nova cdp >> simaudio moon i-5 >> revel performa m20 on skylan stands via acoustic zen matrix reference ii and acoustic zen satori sb3 >> audioengine 5 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 325xi's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=5661 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=37557 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
