Hostile skepticism Sean does not pass for being well mannered in my book. Something along the line of "that looks interesting perhaps you would care to share abit more about..." would have sufficed.
Very well: It is my friend Ricky that is the telecommunications engineer not I. I just research the various mods out there and work with him on what we think will work. He traces all the circuits and does the lectronics. We live 800 miles from each other. Adding an inline transformer will not reverse the ferrite's action, it would only reduce the EMI. He did notice that on the scope. If the inductors L8 and L9 inside the SB3 are bypassed eg in the internal mod, the HF roll-off will be improved. There is a trade-off with the L8 and L9 bypassed, the pulse transformer must be used with the SB3 to reduce the EMI. The advantage of the Inline Pulse Transformer adapter is no internal mods and can be used with different S/PDIF links. He is gauging the effectiveness of the inline adapter by user's feedbacks, so far has been positive. The improvements are various between the combinations of sources and DACs, some combinations may be more noticeable than the others. I have posted the pics again along with the link to the pulse transformer for those that are interested.
