It's not an issue of sound quality for the digital control per se, it's just a question of where best to put it. If it's before the DSP then you have less dynamic range for the DSP to work with. It's exactly the same issue as in a purely analog system. If you're putting, say, an analog equalizer in the signal path, you should put it before your level controls. That said, from a practical standpoint I think the actual difference would probably be negligible, provided the DSP's behavior is linear with respect to input level. -- seanadams ------------------------------------------------------------------------ seanadams's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=42957 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
