Well, you're probably right, but... my "audiophile" tendency pushes me to minimize compromise whenever I can. If I can.
BTW, if you look back in CD history, 25 years ago, almost everybody was saying (and proving it with various useless ABX tests) that it was impossible to hear any difference above 44.1kHz. And now, the same people are "serving" us 192kHz oversampling dacs saying (with the same aplomb) that the sound is much better. Go figure. -- Themis SB3 - North Star dac 192 - Denon 3808 - Sonus Faber Grand Piano Domus ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Themis's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=14700 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=41144 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
