Is this the bit where I actually take the time to do reasonably well-controlled test and then get told that it's not valid because I don't want to hear the differenc? - sheesh... You are correct in so far as I wasn't expecting to hear a difference (it's not a case of "wanting" - I don't really care or not!)...when I did the first test due to my own stupidity I invalidated the test. Now, if I really "wanted" to hear no difference - then I wouldn't have heard one on that first invalid test, right? aaaaargh! -- 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=38258 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
