Doesn't jibe given the excerpt I quoted from JA in this prior post: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showpost.php?p=445269&postcount=8 In my case the DAC clearly has far lower levels of jitter (> 10x less) using the Toslink input. This *may* hold true for other DACs too. I'd recommend one to experiment with both inputs if they don't have the means to measure jitter. In summary (and to clarify my original statement), I can't say that the Toslink output on the SB produces a cleaner signal than the S/PDIF output, but in my case, the Toslink connection to my DAC produces vastly superior sound. It seems apparent that this is due to the reduced levels of jitter. -- mac Squeezebox 3 -> Entech Number Cruncher (LM4562 modified) -> Musical Fidelity X-10 V3 Teres Turntable -> ET2 -> DV 20XL -> Jensen transformers -> Hagerman Cornet NHT X*d* 2.2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mac's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=932 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=65893 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
