Because: a) I know how enough about how digital audio works and (as others have stated) the level coming out of the DAC has nothing - NOTHING - to do with the analogue levels of the "digital" signal present on the inbound SPDIF stream. If it did, you could strap a pot across the SPDIF and use it as a volume control... b) some people always want to look for the most complex explanation to any phenomena - even when the obvious answer is staring them in the face. c) the attenuator is not in the digital chain - what are you rambling about? -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal... ...SB3+TACT+Altmann+MF DACXV3/Linn tri-amped Aktiv 5.1 system and some very expensive cables ;o) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Phil Leigh's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=85 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=38024 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
