To be clear, the plots I posted early are directly from the WAV files
ripped from the CD...so how they look is how the CD looks. I need an
expert here, but my guess is that the Gibbs phenomena only applies to a
pure squarewave and any intermodulation by any other signal will cause
the Gibbs phenomena to reduce. I hope this is true otherwise Mr.
Fourier was wrong? (or is it me?).

When I get some time I will try sending a "Gibbs-free" squarewave to
the SB and see what comes out of the DAC...

You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it
ain't what you'd call minimal...SB3+Stontronics PSU - Altmann
JISCO/UPCI - TACT RCS 2.2X + Good Vibrations S/W - MF
Triplethreat(Audiocom full mods)- Linn 5103 - Aktiv 5.1 system (6x
LK140's, ESPEK/TRIKAN/KATAN/SEIZMIK 10.5), Townsend Supertweeters,
Kimber & Chord cables
Outdoors: Boombox+Creative Sub (If I remember to turn it on...)
